WARNING SURROUNDING DEVICE ENCRYPTION: As someone who works in computer repair, I need to express how important it is to also have periodic backups for your data if you enable encryption. With the exception of data-recovery specialists, most computer repair shops CAN NOT access your drives which are encrypted if the system is either dead or if the OS is too corrupt to allow encryption removal from the Windows Recovery tool and If Bitlocker is enabled and you don't have the key, you may as well kiss your data goodbye.

Just a quick note on your last point sometimes not updating immediately is the smartest thing you can do. Some updates or patches can break another. The other reason to possibly hold off is there might be a undiscovered problem that might require another patch to fix why update to a vulnerable patch when the one you currently has is just fine? Your best bet is to wait a week or two to see if anyone discovered any issues with it and if not then do the update.

[@autisticgirlawareness7420]

I wait until I’m fiorced to update once my computer or phone start going too slow or buggy then I know it’s update time sometimes Apple will purposely force you to update when you don’t want to but you’ll eventually have to do it anyways.

[@TheHouseOfWaffles]

With Windows 7 I actually took the time to look up details on each individual update package before installing it, and then I would allow only one package to install at a time so that I could easily verify which, if any, update screwed things up and roll it back. The unfortunate downside to this was that installing updates 1 at a time instead of say 10 at a time slowed down the "check for updates" process such that it started taking several hours just to determine which updates were available. I figure it must have been slowly analyzing each update log.

[@jrmartinez1354]

Jesus Christ saved my life he can save yours to. No body is perfect except Jesus Christ. So he was the perfect sacrifice for the world and he became that sacrifice.

Know you have sinned and know you are not good in God’s eyes. Forsake meaning as in try your absolute best to not sin. We have to be clean and filled with the Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ said we must be born again to enter The Kingdom of Heaven. God bless you all. I love you all may you all find Jesus Christ as your Lord Savior . God bless brothas and sisters ❤❤!

Regarding your last point: I was relaxing on a weekend away, but had my laptop with me for an online event. Unfortunately, Windows decided to update the moment I booted it up, offering me no chance to delay that update. Fortunately, I booted in time for the 2.5 hour update procedure to finish, just in time for me to get into the online event, but it would be much more helpful if Windows told us how large an update is and how long it takes to install. I've already had updates fail for lack of space (why didn't the system check if there was sufficient space first?)

[@declan_youtube]

How (at least in my experience) Windows schedules its updates is during inactive times (like 2:00 am), then it will prompt you for an update and after a few unaccepted prompts it will just update. As for why didn't Windows check if there was enough space, There are multiple factors that would make this difficult. The size of the drive Windows is stored in, the other files in that drive. I'm not saying that it'd be impossible, but not really worth it due to the fact not many people would have use to know how large an update is

Hey Joe, for some issues it would be nice if you focus a bit more on the actual solution in stead of the issue.

(I know the answer, but would be nice if *you* mentioned it) 5) I would suggest to check the settings of the specific app first. You can also use the Windows Settings, instead of Task Manager.

[@iamaylacat3935]

Got stuck on the POST screen after an update for a while ago. Had to rollback, only to discover this was an unfixed issue from a preview build. I update once my computer auto pushes, which is usually long enough that any issues will have been ironed out.

Shift+Shutdown also disables fast startup. That's useful if you need to tap a function key to get to the boot menu or BIOS

[@deViant14]

Better off hitting Windows key and typing Advanced Startup Options. Choose Troubleshoot. Then Advanced Options. Then either UEFI Startup Settings to boot right into EFI BIOS or Startup Settings if you just want to get to the boot menu. Works every time.
