There are certain points in the process where it will seem like it stopped... it probably hasn't. When I did mine it took almost 2 hours and stopped at a couple of points and seemed not to be doing anything.

Yes, 2 Houres + is not unusual. For me it took 2 and half hours

Although it may look as though it's stuck for me there was further information on the screen below the large circle which gave a % of the various stages & this showed an increase & thus I knew it wasn't stuck.

I wouldn't worry about it, just let it do its stuff. FYI my PC took 6 hours to complete the update.

Well... depends on how old your machine is. I got Win10 on my 5 year old laptop in no time (like half an hour or so). But I'd let it finish what it's doing.

My PC isn't that old but it's more to do with the amount of data, considering I had about 100GB of music and probably 100-150GB of applications and games that had to be migrated then that explains why my machine took 6 hours to complete the upgrade.
