I was in a hurry while installing Ubuntu and saw the option to skip the downloads so I directly installed it with the basic stuff. Does the stuff that I skipped affect performance or anything else?

    Did you hit the skip button or did you uncheck the download updates during install option?

You can do this in a few ways.

  1. You can hit "Search your computer" -> and click on "Software Updater"

  2. Open terminal, and type sudo apt-get update and then sudo apt-get upgrade -y

Both will get the remaining packages.

If it boots and gets to Unity (the graphical desktop environment), then you should be fine. If you skipped and it works great, it must be a built-in program. You could ask what they were and just get them using the sudo apt-get install [package here] command.
