That moment when you're dual booting to have Windows for gaming and Windows decides it would be nice to reboot and install updates, while you're gaming of course. Without any sort of visible notification. Any. And then it fails to install its updates, because updates are hard to install, you know? Sometimes its just not the way you'd like it, you know? It's probably best to revert everything, yes? It only takes an hour after all! An hour of the lovely “Windows was too dumb to update and now has to try to make itself work again” screen with its lovely moving dots. Oh and of course you'll have to sit there and watch it because Windows has to reboot at least twice during the process. And if you're not there to tell GRUB you want to boot into Windows again Linux won't boot properly because Windows keeps the filesystems write-protected. Just to be safe you'd let it complete its marvellous ways!

I wish this was the first time this happened. But it wasn't. Fuck Windows.

    Are you using Windows 10?
    I actually have the exact same problem, but I never had this issues with pre Windows 10 versions.
    Sadly this is the only bad/annoying part about dual boot.

    I had pretty much exactly this issue last weekend. Blew about 3 hours not installing some updates...

    @DelError Nope, Windows 7. Actually I haven't had this issue with Windows 10 (so far).
