Don't "tune" your Win 10 unless you got info on how to do it from someone you really trust. I don't tune squat. The last update a few days ago took oh, maybe 5-10 minutes. Like Kent said if you're talking hours or almost a full day? Your system is hosed, the update had nothing to do with that and I guarantee you it's user error caused by too much "tuning". LEAVE IT ALONE.

I remember reading somewhere before Win 10 was officially launched MS was seriously considering locking the OS so users can't mess with it but there's too many "pro's" out there who think they know better. There's no doubt some really do but man, I'll hazard a guess about 99.5% of users have no clue but just can't help themselves and the reason is what Kent explained. Older OS's really did require all that tweaking so the habit was instilled then and old habits are hard to break.
