Sorry I did not explain fully.
After 5 hrs running the first time with Maintenance still in progress I had to shut down thw PC passed midnight.
I started maintenance again this morning 05:00hrs and is still running now at 16:00 & Maintenance is still in progress.
"Check for solutions" says when maintainance finishes solutions will appear in Action Center. There is nothing there as it is still in progress.
I intend to leave it through the night & tomorrow all day this time.
Is this what you meant it takes time? was it same with you?
