| 1419359 | 2016-04-20 05:53:00 | A lot depends on what's on the laptop ( amount of data/ programs etc) as well the specs of the laptop. Seen it take a couple hours on lower spec laptops, or like one I did on Monday, once W10 had downloaded some updates, since it was upgrading from a DVD, it took less than 15 minutes once it required a reboot (high powered Laptop with SSD drive). What ever you do DONT stop it, if you do theres a HIGH chance it will corrupt the install and you'll be faced with a data recovery ( if its not already saved) and a complete fresh install. BUT if its taking a long time then expect troubles anyway. |
