40GB free is not 'full' by anyone's definition, and also you would expect a useful error message from the updater if that is indeed not enough to successfully update. This sort of thing is even worse if you're not a power user, but regular users tend to just put up with it and get the impression computers are just kind of shit in general.
- phendrenad2 4mo ago> you would expect a useful error message from the updater if that is indeed not enough to successfully update Sure, but it doesn't. And it doesn't matter to most users, who, as I said, just take their PC to the local PC Repair Shop when it runs out of storage, so there's no backpressure on Microsoft to fix it. See my other comments about this being an Is/Aught Fallacy issue.
- rcxdude 4mo agowith a failing update I don't think they'd even bother to do that. They'll just live with an old version and the occasional reboot when windows decides to try again.
- phendrenad2 4mo agoThat's an excellent point
