That's not what the sales brochure said.
Quote: Angular relies on HTML to define the user interface of an app, a language nearly all developers are experts in. Developers have told me that producing code in Angular is much easier than attempting to create a user interface in JavaScript or or (sic) without a framework.

Yes - stir up some action; let them know it has grounds to believe trouble is brewing.

Just had a Windows update which I installed straight away as the PC was dog slow and I've noticed this before when updates are ready to be installed.
So, is Windows doing some prep work in the background, before I've agreed to the update or is it maybe the AV scanning everything that has been downloaded?
I know, I should have investigated there and then, but had emails I wanted to reply to ...

Probably both...

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

I've noticed that with mine as well - I assume it's a combination of large download files, prep work, and poor code in the updater spending too much time checking the download status / validity.

I just got hit with an update to 21H1 a couple days ago, so probably that.

Windows will download and stage for installation security definition updates and any update Microsoft has internally marked critical prior to the user accessing Windows Updates to configure this. It's part of the OOTB (Out Of The Box) subsystem.

I had that this morning Rich on my Surface Pro - it was quite hot ( fan on constantly ) and a bit sluggish so I thought I'd reboot - then I got the Windows is preparing... etc - took anout 30 minutes to sort itself out. All good now though.

Prolly a "cumulative" update is downloading ... fire up TM and under "Processes" tab sort on CPU use to see whats currently dogging your senses.
Sometimes it's Windows other times it's some nube virus writer. Yesterday I encountered an exploit which logged me off a "Sign-In" site ... but didn't do anything more than test my patience. The typical system-crash/bsod might not have been what he was after.
Nor was my wait to log back into the site until I powered down completely and restarted the computer. Ha! Nube.

Patch Tuesday as it's commonly known (2nd Tuesday of the month) is still a thing, so yeah, this is when MS releases their regular updates. That would explain the "why now".
For anyone who has to update multiple systems, and want to remain in control of what gets installed and when...I strongly suggest reading up on WSUS. It's been built into Windows Server for ages, and it's rather easy to set up and maintain, and you can set it up so nothing goes by without you getting involved and approving of anything it has on offer. I've used it to block countless nagware patches MS has pushed over the years, including that full-screen "upgrade to Windows 10" thing that was showing up on Windows 7 and drove everyone crazy.
I have dozens of systems, both physical and virtual, that all need to be patched, and I'm doing this through a tiny 5mbps connection. Patches, if you approve them, only get downloaded once and the endpoints never need to go out to the internet. For that alone I find it's worth my time. I quite literally remote into that system only once a month to review and then approve the updates that are queued and waiting.

Let mine happen overnight as I have moved into that fatalistic area where I don't give a rats. When I restarted this morning it wanted to reset my browser functionality, install Office365 and when I rejected that is wanted to create web links to Office365.
MS fatalistic does mean f***ing stupid!
