It’s honestly not that bad, it’s not like you’re required to actually do anything while this is happening.

Yeah, and you can wander off and do something else in the meantime.

I’m pretty sure it’s less than 10, and I just recently set up a Windows machine.

How TF did that take three days?

How I want a windows install is “working, with no BS”.

It comes out the box working, all I needed to do was disable Onedrive on boot. I haven’t even bothered to change the background, and probably won’t.

There’s also a number of things you have to click “no” on, like a free trial office or Onedrive.

It took me around an hour to set up my new Win 11 laptop, most of which was downloading and installing updates. I expected far worse.
