Update all drivers from the PC manufacturer to their latest Win10 drivers. If they don't have Win10 drivers, downgrade to 8.1 or 7, or but a new PC.

Not my choice on buying a new Pc or downgrading.

So I take it there are no Win10 drivers installed then?

Not that I'm seeing, all it says is the "best driver" is already installed.

That seems a bit of the top for a suggestion - not saying it's wrong, but I've never seen the requirement to get a new machine because Windows 10 was installed and something was causing it to reboot.
Personally - I'd wipe and reload it long before buying a new machine, but you're remote, so that's a harder decision.
Have you used the MS Fixit tool for Windows Update? that might do the trick.

DISM and sfc /scannow are your friends. Just make sure that you launch the cmd window as administrator

This is good. In addition to sfc, DISM will restore your local store of Windows files to put back in place in case of corruption / issues with the installation. One other thing to try is a chkdsk /f or /r if you want. These are just insurance moves if the logs don't reveal anything obvious.

Also from an administrative cmd prompt, you could run start /w cleanmgr.exe and get rid of stale update files, old installations, ... I usually keep dump and log files. It takes a while for a restart if you remove any update files because it rebuilds your updates database during restart.

that scares me.
LOL this is a live site right now.
This has been happening since the first of the year apparently.
First I heard about it was a week ago.
