what if you didn't even want to, but god still says so
No way to skip it.
never shut down
This is before you ever see the desktop. You HAVE to do it. It's part of the Windows installation now.
I did a fresh install of 11 recently and it took heckin forever after restrating like twice and doing lots of "setup"
It was a great processor and on a decent ssd, so i do think they've just increased how long the setup takes
Oldest developer trick in the book. Program in a bunch of useless delays everywhere. On the next few updates, slowly remove them and say you are "improving" the system.
Just use windows 10 in a vm
If our planning is anything to go by: easily half an hour longer than 10, if you do a manual install.

Only want to run Linux as your primary operating system? If you are good with a slightly more complicated install process and don't need access to Windows tools (like Outlook, Teams, Word, PowerPoint, etc), you can run Linux on bare metal to access the full potential of your hardware without any overhead from virtualization or emulation.
They know they cannot stop those determined. So they worded some parts to try to make it sound like "it will inconvenience you and Linux is hard" so that people are like "Ok, I will not do it if it is hard".
Funny, but did you manage to install it on a way too old pc or are you using hdd as System drive?
Because it just seems to install as normal, but slowly.
I mean Linux may take the same time if you install sth like popos which ads a lot of "bloat"
This is on an M.2 with a i7-10870H and a 3080M. I installed Windows some days ago on my main Desktop and didn't have to deal with any of that. It must be a new "feature".
Well then I wonder what the fuck Windows is doing? Running crypto miners?
Would you put it past Microsoft?
When I had to reinstall Windows 11 on a laptop at work with an 11th Gen i7 it took a good 30+ minutes of it faffing about between finishing the setup wizard and reaching the deskfop and when I to installed PopOS on a much older laptop with a 6th Gen i7 it took less than 5 minutes to perform the install
Pop took like 5 min on my old crappy m.2
Thereβs no such thing as an old crappy m.2. That format is way too new to be called old and crappy. Ide hdds are old and crappy, some sata are old and crappy, m.2 is not even old and certainly not crappy
There are definitely crappy M.2 drives. Drives with no cache, slow nand, slow processors, and awful TBW. Theyβll be light years faster than a hard drive, but if they fail in a year then are they not crappy?
Sure there are. It's several years old and was low spec already then. You know the timeline of m.2 seemingly so you should be aware what old and crappy means in the context of m.2's age.
There's a world of difference between SATA and NVMe.
And neither are old or crappy. Any m.2 format drive does not deserve to be called either. That just reeks of entitlement to consider any m.2 bad, just sounds like a kid that never used anything actually bad
M.2 can be anything, from the crappiest SATA to the best NVME money can buy
Any modern SATA SSD will still nearly max out the bus in sequential writes, delivering sequential performance ~3x that of a spinning disk and random performance, even for the cheapest of drives, at >100x a disk.
Installing windows is not generally going to be enough to fill the drive write buffer, and even if it does, they're still going to be comparable to spinning rust. This is a problem that affects low quality (not necessarily cheap) drives, both SATA and NVME.
The last 30 minutes of peace until chaos and disorder.
Installing Debian took like 5 mins, doing all the configuration and stuff.
Ayyy, another Greek, hello there!π
Heeeey! :)
Is there a gathering for Greeks? Count me in!!!
