Self hosting an Ark Survival game server for my friends and I. Have it running through a windows VM on Proxmox.

What is the best way to go around the “Windows Update auto restarting the server” deal?

I set up a batch file to run server on start up in case, my other issue is I have the Windows login page and would like to skip right to the desktop instead to auto launch server.

Appreciate any advice thank you.

    For the second issue:

    Run > ‘netplwiz’ > ‘users’ tab > uncheck ‘Users must enter a username and password to use this computer’ > click ‘ok’ > finally, enter the user+pass to be auto logged-in.

    Windows will now login to the specified user on startup.
