Similar to how you go to a car boot sale / rummage sale with all of your stuff. That’s normally quick – then you have to unpack and place all of your items onto a table which takes time.

The same applies for software installation. The process of getting to the point of installing is quick, so is the first part of your computer working out what to do. Then small files need to be moved into the right places, computer updates system registry and then cleans up.
