Windows 11 - Windows Update - Automatic restart after update

Hello

We migrated our systems to Windows 11 24H2 from Windows 10. We encountered a problem with Windows 11 24H2 automatically restarting after installing an update. A message appears that the system will restart in 15 minutes. The user can click a different time. After a few minutes, the message that the system will restart appears again. How do I disable automatic restarting after installing the update? We have set the active hours for the system and the "No auto-restart with logged on users for scheduled automatic updates installations" option. When we had Windows 10, the system would not restart. After installing the December update for Windows 11, the system forced a restart.

The problem occurs on all computers. How do I disable automatic restart?

Update via Wsus. Windows Update configured via GPO
