Windows update is agony compared to apt/yum.
A complete patch Tuesday session is twenty minutes of reduced performance, followed by a "don't reboot your computer" of unknown time both before and after the reboot.
Anything is better than that, especially when some updates either reboot immediately or kindly give you five minutes to close everything down (was tmux made precisely for Windows update?).
Exposure to apt/yum really makes Windows intolerable, just for this alone.
- mrcsharp 3y ago> especially when some updates either reboot immediately or kindly give you five minutes to close everything down I have been a Windows user since XP. Never, not even once did Windows decide to reboot without asking first. Never. The only way this could've have happened is if Windows kept asking you over the span of a week or 2 to restart to apply the updates and you kept postponing it. Either way, "Hot Patching" will soon be a thing on Windows so restart won't be required every month [1].
