I saw that happen once in a big presentation.

There was a team of students presenting their work to ~200 people. Right in the middle, a pop-up says updates are finished and the computer needs to restart. It has a helpful 60-second countdown, but “cancel” is grayed out, so all they can do is watch.

I was only in the audience and I still have nightmares.

Greyed out options like that almost always mean the person has been hitting cancel or delay for several warnings already.

This wasn't their machine, it was one the school provided for the auditorium.

And someone still had to configure that
