Seriously though, why do take Windows updates so long?
>>
>>51794640
because autisms gotta catch 'em all and select every possible optional update, instead of just installing security updates which takes half the time. enjoy all your language packs for languages which you'll never speak.

The downloads were quick...it's just the install process takes forever.

You're tremendous idiots. There's a single Windows 7 update that makes installing all the others much faster. Just look it up on SuperUser.

This.
Windows 10 installs in 10 minutes, kohai.

From what I can tell about how it installs, it tries to be super duper safe about everything. It downloads, and then it checks the integrity, double checks the integrity, simulates installing, checks the integrity of THAT, deletes the simulated install and so on...

Windows Update is meant to be run automatically without the user's intervention too so there's extra features to make sure nothing breaks if they shut down or something else while updates are running, which slows it down even more.

I'd like it if windows update had an option to turn off all that safety, but since Windows is for your common retard or Granny we know everyone would be wrecking their machines overnight without that protection.

It's better than windows 10 and 8.
>>
>>51796521
No, it's not. I'm saying this as someone who used Windows 7 until 3 days ago when MS forced me off it, there's nothing "better" about Windows 7 its just more familiar with people who are used to it.
