12 hour update
I hibernated in the evening. When I tried to wake up the computer in the morning, it began an update. I recall seeing no messages, but the disk light came on continuously. I waited until bored then switched to an alternative computer. An hour later it still was not done, but the pattern had changed. The disk light flashed on for a very short time, perhaps a half second. Then off for maybe 5 seconds repeatedly. The numlock key lights as normal, showing the process is still running. But it's been 25 hours now. Of course there are no messages about what Win10 is doing.
What could possibly be happening that would run this long?
BTW, if Microsoft is tallying customer satisfaction, count me one of the decades-long Microsoft customers who is absolutely livid with anger at the update process. Customers have deadlines and appointments for which they need their computers to work without delay. And no, making it finish in half the time will not solve the problem. The fundamental problem is the discourtesy of taking over the computer without informed permission.
