Description

My Windows 10 PC attempted to reboot while installing Keybase app without any prompt. I canceled the reboot, because the installation was preventing it, but all my apps closed and I may lose data.

Research direction

The report concerns the Keybase app installer on Windows 10, but names no file, test, or entry point. Begin by reproducing the unexpected reboot during installation and trace the Windows installation flow; done means installation no longer restarts the computer or closes applications without an explicit prompt.
