Windows 10 download size update#
Ive read that this is because of the programs on my hard disk' having to be re installed. On your Windows 10 PC, open Settings Head to Update & Security and choose Windows Insider Program from the left pane If youre not already. In some cases the bandwidth that a potential users is allotted from the service provider barely covers an insider build.Īlso perhaps I should be posting this in a separate post - when I was downloading and installing tp builds the downloading often took me in the region of 5 hours and then the installation of that build also took about 5 hours. I am asking this because some users have limited bandwidth or a slower connection speed. I can imagine that in order to fix some bugs areas of the OS have to be re written - hence the large sizes. But installing a new build on top of that build I would think that the download sizes would be smaller, after all you have installed the main part of windows 10 and by installing a new build you are merely adding features or fixing bugs that were in your pervious version.
The size of the version 20H2 ISO is 5.8GB, which means you need to use a Wi-Fi or mobile connection with at least 6GB of bandwidth. Why are windows 10 downloads so large? Im talking about the insider builds and I can understand that if you are on windows 7 or something the first time you switch to 10 that the download will be large. To download ISO file for Windows 10 October 2020 Update.
I have a question which Id like to ask being new at this I need to understand the answer.
