    I maintain a small Windows dual boot for taking certification exams (that don’t run on Linux). It’s torture to update it once every 6 months. 3-4 hours requiring multiple reboots.

      You can use Chris titus util to delay the feature updates and keep security updates. That’s what I did for my dual-boot

            😂it takes a fucking day to install all updates on the new PCs i set up at my workplace and download speed on our side is definitely not the bottleneck

            At least it does the heavy lifting in background so my coworkers don’t realise how slow it is, but maybe it is by design, so that it doesn’t impact workflow 🤷🏻

            But definitely not what i call “fast"
