WillReboot (Standard 8 Module Reference)
7/8/2014
Review the applicable Embedded Core modules and any examples for the WillReboot setting in Windows Embedded 8 Standard (Standard 8).
This setting specifies in what circumstances to restart the device after running a synchronous command.
If there are any additional commands that have yet to be processed before the device restarts, those commands are saved. After the restart, the remaining synchronous commands resume.
The following table shows the possible values.
