    Windows 10 Home - Installing updates


    Windows OS have always had issues with their OS update downloader/installer, but have never fixed it.

    The biggest issue is when trying to download more than a few updates, especially the larger updates, the installer freezes and sometimes locks the computer. I had a work around with this, in previous OS, by manually picking one smaller update to download and install, and then the rest were no issue installing all at once. It was as if the installer needed to be 'woke up'. But this ability has been taken away in Windows 10. I have tried twice to install updates and it just sits at "0%". It doesn't even show me what updates there are prior to the installation process, and at no time does it tell me how big the downloads are.

    I don't understand why we no longer have the right to see what we are downloading, how big the file is and download at our convenience and one at a time instead of everything all at once. Also, there have been many "important updates" in the past that had nothing to do with anything on my computer, so I hid those, to not waste my internet or space on my computer. That too has been taken away.

    :)

  2. New install Windows 10 (issue solved)

    It's good that you're not experiencing any issues. Unfortunately many folks are, a quick Google search will show the same info im offering the OP.

    Heres a couple examples:

    Here

    It's basically what I mentioned above, small issues here and there ,but nothing to end your day.. for the most part.

    I know it's anecdotal, but for my experience 95% of the time it's perfectly fine. The issues I've run into wouldn't be enough for me to roll back , but they would be enough (had I not installed it yet) ,to avoid it for another couple weeks which is why I'm suggesting it to the OP
