I have a calendar entry each week to dual-boot into Win 10 'cos otherwise when I need to do work in there the thing is completely pegged. Tried this yesterday - first time in 2 weeks - and the desktop became unresponsive after ~20 secs. Copying files over the network randomly failed and I couldn't press [Win] to get to the start menu.
Windows updates are a tyre fire. This isn't to mention the number of times it's automatically rebooted me on my work laptop.My wife's mother has a Win 10 laptop she logs into into probably once every 2 weeks to work on a Google Doc. Her internet is terrible, but it's unusable for her with WU trying to eat her cpu and download a couple of gig of updates.
Why shouldn't I get her a Chromebook? And why shouldn't I use Linux on mine when it's a million times better?
Windows update processes regulary pegs my cpu for minutes at a time. Why does this come out of nowhere and totally hog my system?
