Just a heads up for those running Windows 10 - there's an update yesterday/today that is massive. It took my laptop about 2 hours to get through it.

So, a warning - don't run the update if you need to use your computer soon!

Thanks for the warning. I'll do it overnight if I get it, but there's nothing yet.

DH had it too. Maybe they don't send it to everyone at the same time?

It's a features upgrade, or something. My graphics on the bottom bar and home screen have changed.

Cheers I'll put mine on now and get it over with!

Good idea. I kept thinking it had finished, but it restarts your computer multiple times.

Did you get it updated? Did it take aaaaaaaaages?

Or was that just my little laptop Grin

There was one about a month ago that took aaages to install, about an hour and a half for me. Hmmm, something to look forward to...

Maybe it was the same one?

@NanTheWiser

Maybe it was the same one?
Could be! Maybe they are rolling it out to different machines at different times/dates.
