no it does not disrupt my machine I just wanted to know because I
thought it was taking a little longer to check for updates and only
finding one update.
Re: [JAWS-Users] windows update on windows 8.1
Hi, Anna.
No one using 8.1 has responded, so I'll give you my experience on my
windows 7 system. I just ran Windows update and it went very quickly,
from checking
to installation. It took two or three minutes at most, which is
unusually fast. The update must have been relatively small. Has it been
a while since you've
run Windows update? That could explain the long time. Otherwise, I
imagine any number of factors could have slowed down the process when
you went through
it: some temporary connection problem, excessive downloading at that
time. I find I can still work on my PC while windows update is going on
in the background.
Does it disrupt your machine? Otherwise, I doubt there's anything to
worry about.

Yes I know but jaws 15 does not work on windows 10
and I do not have the money to upgrade to jaws 18
and also because I am not ready for another assessment with the CNIB for
another two years.
Re: [JAWS-Users] windows update in windows 8.1 I'm not sure. you do know
that if you are blind you can still update to
windows10 for free. I found some stuff that I want to run does not work
on windows8 and windows8.1.
but no it should not take an hour it should take no more than 2 or 3
minutes to check for updates.

thanks but I am asking if it is normal for windows 8.1 to take over an
hour to check for windows updates?
Re: [JAWS-Users] windows update in windows 8.1 I am running windows10
professional 64bit and it just takes 1 or 2 minutes for windows to check
for updates.

i KNOW i ASKED THIS QUESTIONearlier but I am asking it again because it
took over an hour to check for windows updates and it only found one
update I figured
since it was taking so long it would have found more than one.
That is why I am asking this question if it is normal to take over an
hour to check for updates?
Thanks in advance
