  • Let’s compare the update process when you want to shutdown your computer:

    Windows:

    1. Doesn’t leave you the choice: your getting updated now, deal with it
    2. Starts to update
    3. Reboots, update for 2 minutes (wasn’t that bad)
    4. Reboots again, updates for 15 minutes (come on man, I’m gonna miss my train !)
    5. Reboots AGAIN ! continue and eventually finishes the update
    6. Shutdown

    Fedora:

    1. We have downloaded updates, do you want to Install them before shutdown?
    2. Not this time, thank you
    3. Shutdown Or if you do let it install, reboots always just once, updates 2 minutes, done.

    If you have disk encryption or bitlocker, you just can’t let the PC update unattended. Not knowing how many times windows needs to reboot for this update is hella annoying.
