    "Preparing to install updates"......still at 32% Grrrrrr.
    And this is a reasonably fast system with an SSD and fast internet connection.
    Dang windows. This background-install stuff is crap. How long can it take? I think they do a lot of decompression and security-checking as they install stuff...like signature/checksum/maybe-encoding stuff. But still. Grrrrr. Frig. I could copy a million files in the amount of time it takes them to write crap. Sloooooooooooooowwww..........

    Might be my virus protection getting in the way too. IDK.

    Crap.

    Grrrr.

    "Preparing to install updates"
