johnoo Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 Thought my machine was running slow today. later found that the above monthly update had been deployed. Is there any way of:- 1 Finding out that this is occurring so I can keep of the machine to let update progress at faster rate? 2 Find out how long update will take to deploy? 3 Delay update until night time? Must say this month the updates were installed with no problems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belatucadrus Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 IIRC = If I Recall Correctly or The International Integrated Reporting Council which seems unlikely given the context. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reference your IIRC comment, this is my M/c spec. is that low? Intel® Core™ i3-3220 processor running at 3.30GHz, and 4GB of RAM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boris Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 As I said above - if you click on PC Settings and then Update and Security it shows you what it is doing (if it is currently doing any downloading updates/updating) Your i3-3220 is an adequate cpu (as against being a fast one) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boris Posted January 13, 2017 Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 That looks correct to me - don't know why you aren't getting the emails. I've never seen the need to use it myself so can't help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
