How is it that Windows 11 prompted me to restart my pc to perfrom an update, updated for like 15 minutes, and then it booted right into the desktop without prompting me to log in first?!?

Your PC is no longer yours... Adapt accordingly.
Huh. 🤔
I haven't kept up with whatever Microsoft is doing, but my only thought is possibly it's using the TPM in some way to accomplish this?
IIRC, that's what all their FDE is based on, which is great for attackers who steal the whole computer and not just the hard drive.
I have many thoughts on FDE, something you have/know, and hardware security. 😁 They are generally independent of any operating system or implementation.
