Fall Creators Update

[allheart55 (Cindy E)]

So, for the past week, I have been denying Windows updates.
This morning, I got a prompt to restart my computer to begin the update.
I denied it again and shortly after, I left the computer room.
I came back upstairs a few minutes later and discovered it had restarted and begun the update on it's own.

After five reboots and 2 1/2 hours, it finally completed.
Turns out it was the Fall Creators Update.
I have never had a Windows update take this long or reboot so many times.
It was very frustrating.

Been there. Yeah, that one is a real pain.

I have seen over an hour updates before. I have also had Windows decide to update even when I tell it not to.

Since I fully retired it is nice not having to deal with Windows any longer.

I have to admit, it ticked me off when I saw it updating after I denied it.

Everyone seems to be getting into some version of Linux lately and it has me thinking about trying it too.
I will always keep a Windows machine though, just so that I am still able to help people with issues.
Honestly, it's the only reason why I updated one computer to Windows 10.

I keep one VM with Windows 10. I fire it up once in a while to upgrade it. In fact I should upgrade it today. I haven't fired it up in a month so I'm sure it will take the rest of the day to upgrade.

As I thought. A number of updates available. I'll start them now and they should be done after the super bowl.

 

[allheart55 (Cindy E)]

Can't miss the super bowl!
Go Birds!

I hope it’s the Eagles. I couldn’t take another year with Patriots winning.

 

[allheart55 (Cindy E)]

Me either!

It has been that long since I updated my ten system maybe some day I may just get around t doing it. For right now I will lust stick to using Ununtu.
