Today was my first day at attempting to create a deployment package, which includes four steps: uninstall two applications, check for Services removal from Registry, install one application, and reboot.

The package ran without issue, but I have a question about the Reboot option. I set my package to reboot after 5 minutes in the "Final action" field. I received a message, "You're about to be signed out. Windows will shut down in 5 minutes." However, three minutes later, I received another message, "You're about to be signed out. Windows will shut down in 2 minutes."

Is there always a 2-minute warning, regardless of what time I set for my reboot?

Dear Tragar, 

The 2-minute warning is generated by Windows.
If you run a similar command as the one below, and request a timeout in 5 minutes, you will also get the 2-minute warning.

shutdown -r -t 300 -c "Your system will reboot in 5 minutes."
