Evgeni Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 (edited) I've been seeing the update window for about 30 minutes, and it's not event half of the process. It's too much for that piece of software. It's not a sporadic issue. Each time I start the update process, it takes much time. I think uninstall and install would be faster. AMD Ryzen 9 5900X, 32 GB RAM, 1 GBit/s inbound, Windows 11.

Pšenda Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Isn't this a problem with downloading the installation package? If I have the installation downloaded, it took me about 6 minutes to "install" the MSI/EXE version 2.4.2.
