Two days lost to this crap. "Failed to Update." Twice. Oh, you can use your PC while we try to update, it will just periodically freeze so that your productivity drops to about 7 percent of usual. Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain. All is well.
If you know what I need to do to facilitate installation, why don't you just fucking do it before you just try again?
System76 looks better every day.
What a co-inky-dink. Windows just popped up a warning "Restart to install the newest Windows feature update." Oh, joy.
ReplyDeleteFor the last week it's been pestering me every day that there's a problem with my windows account and since I re-entered my password a half dozen times and then got p*ssed with having to do it every day, I don't bother. I have no idea why I even need a Windows account, since I don't do anything with Microsoft and their cloud services. I bet I'd better do that before I install the update.
Apparently the cutoff date was last week or over the weekend when it started trying to upgrade and tied itself in knots, until I did the recommended fix for when a "Windows update is stuck." Hence the "If you know what I need to do..."
DeleteI can control Window "Updates" on my home computer, but not my work computer.
ReplyDelete(the people at the upper corporate level that control our IT are idiots)
I've seen people light up their laptops and the Window "Update begins and it lasts 4 hours !!!!!
I was able to put it off for some time. But eventually (20H2 update became available last month) they are "No more waiting!"
DeleteSo warning would have been nice. I could have done it calmly last week.
