![]() If you've ever used Catalyst Control Center, you already know that the software isn't exactly speedy. The installation process for Catalyst Driver 15.7.1 run from a pre-extracted installation package took one minute 42 seconds to complete, and it required multiple user interactions. We didn't record the uninstall time, but it was well under a minute, and likely less than 30 seconds. Removing the software was even faster than that. Running it this way, the software installed in 71 seconds.
