Thank you for the information.

 

Got all the updates for 8.1 but there's nothing for 10.

 

I've got two updates today. One is optional (KB3000850) of over 700mb size ! The other "important" one was only around 1.5mb as I recall, KB3011780. Haven't installed the big one yet. Had the small one on Vista yesterday.

 

That optional one just managed to make me problems in Win 8.1.1. No proper shutdown or restart after that and the important one. Tried all usual remedies and nothing helped. Still troubleshooting. Now I'm afraid to try them on 10 even if I get them.

 

This hasn't come through for me yet.

 

That doesn't sound good. Would you believe its still not finished. Over an hour to download and install. A long reboot. I then left it for a while and did another restart. Now running a full disk clean and that has been going for nearly an hour now. Disk cleanup in 8.1 is horrific, I dread running it because its so slow, even if there is nothing much to clean.

I noticed this update took some 3.5 gb space and disk clean only found 0.25gb to clean. And an hour later and its still running.


How green is that Microsoft ? All those W8.1 PC's churning away. I bet if you added it all up, an update like this takes the equivalent of taking the full output of several power stations for several hours to complete.

 

The most important thing you can do is to leave your PC alone whilst it applies the 700mb update. I would suggest overnight as hours later it is still up to something in housekeeping mode. Looks like a huge update in a small compressed packet but you have to allow plenty of time for the PC to work on it. SSD and a faster PC with lots of cores are quicker but even so I suggest overnight. One of my virtual machines decided it needed a further update and is installing on shut-down.
