If a user has a problem with an upgrade, can it be rolled back if needed?
Also found this:ATTENTION - RTSS Not Working after Windows 10 Update?
Recently Microsoft released their KB4032188 update which invokes an updated compatibility assistant. That compatibility assistant is now detecting the old RTSS 6.x.x versions launch, and prevents it from doing so. It informs user that RTSS is incompatible with Creators Update and redirects you to our download page with recommendation to upgrade. This is exactly why we released official 7.0.0 beta with Creators Update support back in April 2017. To get compatible again please install revision 7.0.0 beta 19 (or newer). Right now you are using a 6.x.x version. Also, more recommended we suggest that you to download latest full beta package of MSI Afterburner 4.4.0 Beta 12 which includes an even newer build of RTSS.
Gonna try 4.4.0 beta version.

Nope, still shoving 0s.
So...that is very, very interesting to me.
Back several months ago before they radically changed the way upgrades worked, a half hour might have been in the realm of possibility here, but not now.
Yes, as everyone has said, things got a lot better with this particular build (as opposed to the last several, when things were at their absolute worst), but mine took 45 minutes in the first phase (the time from when WU is first checked to when the Reboot button appears) and about 15 minutes post reboot. That's certainly a lot better than it's been recently, when the first phase took an ungodly 65 mins.
So, twice as long as yours. Our system specs are really close. Yes, your CPU is better, but could that really account for this? This seems much more like a disk-bound thing to me.
Note: I was using the system during the install. I wasn't doing anything but using a web browser, though.
This leaves me with one guess, assuming the CPU isn't way more important than I thought: yours is a relatively new install, so there's much less work for the upgrade process to do. Mine is not; it's several years old. If this isn't the explanation, then I'm truly stumped.
For reference, the combined size of the two Program Files dirs here is about 9GB. Programs&Features shows that I have 163 programs installed (that's a misleading count, but it will make for a handy comparison).
