This is about instructions to Windows update KB3140245 on Windows machines.
Microsoft released an update (a very long time ago) that "allows users to change system-wide default protocols for WinHTTP and hardcodes Webio default protocols to include TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2". Full details are in the KB article, and are pretty clear.
This question is specifically about the Restart requirement, quoting the article:
You may have to restart the computer after you apply this update.
The Question
Is there a service, or set of actions I can take that will have the same effect, and prevent me from rebooting?
