There's a lot it needs to do.

I installed yesterday and I didn't time it but I don't think it took an hour. Maybe more like 15 minutes or so.

On a modern PC with SSD it does not, so long as you're installing it as UEFI. Legacy mode always takes forever and sucks the big dick.

It's the updates that take a while, if you're on that stage then eh.

I installed it a week ago on an NVMe M.2 SSD and it took like 5 minutes.

Get better hardware.

It could be that your specs aren't that great. Windows 10 runs considerably faster than 8, by design.

No, it has a 5400RPM HDD according to their site. That is going to murder windows 10 in cold blood performance wise.

Probably this

I got the free Windows 10 upgrade on my old laptop and it ran like shit.

New laptop came with Windows 10 and it's flawless.

Old laptop was a basic ass $300ish email checking Netflix machine.

New laptop is a $1000ish gaming rig.

So yes. I installed Windows 10 on my old laptop, and it took almost three hours with install and updates. I swapped it out to an SSD, and it took an hour and 15 minutes.
