PC left connected to internet after cumulative update & restart
I wasn't quite sure where I should post this; here or under Windows Updates. I decided here as it relates to security concerns.
Apologies if this seems a silly question, but I usually disconnect my PC from the internet when it's ready for an 'Update and restart' process once it's downloaded a cumulative update. On this occasion, my PC remained online once I triggered it to update and restart. Once it reached the login screen, I then went away from the PC for around an hour and realised my mistake upon my return.
My question is, is there an issue leaving it connected to the internet but not yet having logged in? I haven't exposed any sensitive files on my desktop, document or download folders - have I?
