Can somebody explain why Windows is so much slower than… basically every other OS? I mean, what does Windows-Update differently then a apt-get upgrade?
Windows updates are kind of snapshots, they replace more files than necessary and keep the old files incase the update fails or you wish to roll back x update. Besides that you’re also given new packages and features you never asked for, because Windows loves their guinea pigs and doesn’t care if something breaks because of it.
