inaba46256yDear Windows user. That is a prompt and not how your computer updates.
Jokes aside, it's still needs to restart for non-kernel (or whatever the Windows term is) updates.
Does it also update your programs like vscode, mariadb, firefox, chrome, and so on? Running apt upgrade does that -

inaba46256y@rabbi Yes and chrome also updates through apt, like 99.9% of all the other programs I have installed.
And I'm not sure what npm has to do with anything other than that packet managers are nice -
C0D4681386yOoooh that’s so pretty - it must be fake!
I think I’ve seen that maybe 2-3 times since Windows 10 was released, I’ve used insiders and stable releases.
Don’t get me wrong, this is how it’s meant to work.
But it generally just takes out a system process, BSOD, and then magically on reboot there’s a “Windows is updating” screen or on normal shutdown your only option is “update and shutdown” or “update and reboot” -
