  As I mentioned, the total pause period is not just upto 5 weeks, but
any series of periods, each upto 5 weeks.

  And Windows Update will only interfere with the session if the machine
is not powerful enough for the download and partial installation

installation, unless the sales person is so clueless as not to check/set
the (non) active hours.
