There are so many variables that there's no way they can give you a time frame based on your computer configuration and download speeds.  Everyone's experience will be different, and upgrades aren't always the same either.

Subject: [VICUG-L] found some information about how long to let the computer stay on for, but there's a problem

     Hi all,

For the heck of it I did a google search for

how long does it take for Microsoft to download and install updates

In an article titled Research shows Windows updates can take six hours to complete found at the following link https://www.computerworld.com/article/3649193/research-shows-windows-updates-can-take-six-hours-to-complete.html
It's recommended 6 hours, but the problem is, there is 5 hours, but no 6 hours, so, I'll have to set it to never, and let the computer update itself in the night, and I'll have to come out and turn it off in the morning, putting it back to sleep.

I guess I can do that, I'm not loving the idea though.

Harry
