A Message for Beginner Users:

It is very important to keep your Windows operating system up to date.  If you perform windows update regularly, the entire process should not take more than 20 to 30 min.  It may be as fast as 1 to 5 min.

If this is the first time in a long while, it make take one to two hours depending on how many updates it needs to download.

A Message for Advance and Intermediate Users:

If you manually update your computer(regularly), it will not do it automatically when you least expect it (ie: in the middle of your presentation or when you need it the most).
