One extra step I noticed with this update.
It gave the message that it was 'cleaning up'. I don't think I've had that one before. It might have been to do with the Windows.old folder being deleted. I read this happens a month after a major update. If that's what's meant by 'cleaning up', I suppose that would take quite a time.
It didn't take very long in my case because I'd already deleted the folder using Windows 'Clean up system files' shortly after updating to version 2004.
I think this reminds us that the size of Windows 10 probably is growing with most of the extra "benefits" which are put into it, these days.
We seem to have reached a stage where the download has to have a sniff at the drive to make sure that it is big enough, and tidy enough, to download onto it and then do the transition without getting stuck or falling over old update/upgrade debris.
A bit like cleaning out the garage.
Maybe they'll soon be telling us the minimum Boot Disk size will have to be changed before long!
In the meantime we seem to hear about stop & starts, during downloads, as if they are stopping the download, to clear space, and then going on.
They've always done some of this but it seems to be getting more apparent. (Maybe stuff from Google is big as well?)
