    W10 1809 update is taking too long


    Can anyone tell me why the new update is taking 5 plus days to install on a Dell Laptop with 32gb of memory, 3TB of storage, and the latest 12gbs plus of internet connection from Xfinity?


    I have lost so many days of work waiting for this fanciful update to get done. Last night I rebooted it as requested and went to bed because it was stuck at 0% for 2 hours.


    Woke up this morning and logged in only to find there again was this fanciful Windows 10 Features update still installing at 48%.


    Why is this taking so long, and what great new features are being installed that demands so much of my work time? From what I have read so far, there is nothing new being changed. The only thing that is increasing is my ire at Microsoft for once again intruding on my computer, making small tweaks to allow the programmers justification for continued employment at the expense of users needing to get work or anything done.

    :)

    geforce experience takes an age to load..

    Well that's why I asked. Mine is on SSD and takes 11 seconds. Your list of games will not appear if it has not checkd for updated suggested settings for awhile until it checks.

    When it says it is refreshing the game list, it is checking, because NVIDIA periodically updates suggested settings. Plus it will look for those for new games you have installed.

    So, the less it is run, the slower it will be.

  3. 0xC1900101-0x40017 error updating from 1803 to 1809

    Yes, 1809 is available from some sources....but don't do it.

    A full patched 1809 release isn't out yet, and your BIOS/ECM/Drivers will not have a good time of this.

    You will need the patch, and it is not being released now.

    My MSI GT75 did a BIOS update prior to 1809 being installed.

    For current MSI products, Firmware updates are being handled through the Device Manager.

    The MSI Global Forum is a really meek and thin on knowledge base, I would not take their suggestions seriously.

    If you insist on installing, go over to the
    W10 FORUM
    , there are Microsft MVP's available and some of the guy's from TechNet as well.

    I suggest waiting.

    W10 1809 update is taking too long

    w10 updates take hours

    On Friday ( dec. 11 ) morning my w10 informed me it had installed updates. It wouldn't let me use the start button, nor would it let me access it with the button on the keyboard. It took me a few tries for it to even let me use the right mouse click, for
    opening the start panel.

    I rebooted.

    And I'm still rebooting the computer. It's 10.30pm on Saturday evening when I write this, and I rebooted the computer at around 8pm on Friday evening.



    This is the second time it takes hours for the update to be installed ( it took over 6h last time ).

    I would like to know, what is it that makes it to take so god darn long?? Are they supposed to take that long? The computer's a new one too, gotten in June this year.

    I have no other issues with w10.

    It only appears to frick up everytime there's a "major" update.

    What is so special about this update, when it takes 50 years to update?
