Unexpected Shutdown Caused by Windows Update, but there's been no Updates?
I don't have any issue just trying to learn from the event viewer exactly what happened and if i am interpreting this correctly.
I put my computer to sleep yesterday around 4:28pm, and just a few minutes later it appears at 4:30pm it shut off? If Im reading that right. It appears it was caused by windows update client, but i have no recent updates installed. Did the shutdown happen yesterday after I put it to sleep, or did it happen today when I tried to wake it from sleep?

The event at 4:30 PM was probably the system waking up unexpectedly, possibly triggered by Windows Update or a scheduled task. Even if no updates were recently installed manually, Windows Update can still run in the background or wake the system to check for updates.
