Canonfire! Forums-viewtopic-From “Quick Install” to Setup Marathon: When Every Microsoft

I thought setting up Microsoft software would take just a few minutes, but it quickly turned into a long series of decisions and second-guessing. Every checkbox seemed important, and the more I tried to be careful, the more uncertain I felt about each step. Instead of moving smoothly through the setup, I found myself pausing to review options I barely understood.
At some point, I realized that not every setting required deep analysis. Shifting focus to the choices that actually impact performance and usability made the rest of the process feel far less overwhelming. Once I stopped overthinking every detail, the installation moved forward naturally — and in the end, everything worked just fine.
Has anyone else experienced this kind of setup fatigue, where a simple install starts to feel way more complicated than it should?

What started as a quick plan to install Microsoft software turned into a marathon of decisions and double-checking each setting. Every option looked significant, and hesitation grew with every click, making the process feel much longer than anticipated. Halfway through kmspico offered a simple perspective on which choices truly mattered, allowing focus to shift away from less critical details. Moving forward with that in mind made the remaining setup feel smoother, and by the time it was done, everything worked as expected without the constant stress of overthinking each selection.
