Even if she used and prepared her presentation the day before, xp could still have done that. It’s bonkers that you can’t decide when updates happen.
Comment on I have to give a presentation in 15 minutes

We had a finance troll run into our IT department asking “how do I stop a service pack update!?” This was back in the XP days. She had a presentation in 15 minutes and had not turned the laptop on in over a year.
Our answer?
You don’t. You should have started preparing it yesterday.
She was PISSED! But her even more evil boss had ruined all her political capitol over all the other things she failed to prepare for.

This argument fails if you have a presentation on Patch Tuesday, or if the IT department forces critical updates at a certain day/time.
