Unfortunately Windows updates can crash the computer. Since I got "lucky" and (for a while) had to support relatives' and friends' Windows boxes, I got to see first-hand the results of an update gone bad. That's why, when I still used Windows, I very carefully watched what was going on during an update. And, even when I Windows update went well, often the PC ran slower afterwards. Windows tends to (or at least used to tend to) bloat and the Registry is always growing. I can't speak much for Windows in the last five years -- I've mostly escaped from it now -- thank goodness.
