Windows 10 update takes a long time

Q: We get more and more this problem. When we install Windows 10 update, it take 1 or 2 hour, sometimes, it seems taking forever. What can we do it?

Chicagotech.net: here are some suggestions.

  1. Install the updates at night. That will give Windows 10 more time to install the updates.
  2. Install the update manually. You can install one update at once.
  3. Do install once per week or once per month. Don’t let the updates cumulate too many.
  4. Download the updates first and install them manually. Go to this link to download Windows update tool: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10.
  5. Using WSUS or System Management to push the updates to group computers.
  6. Install Windows Update in Clean Boot by running msconfig.
  1. Install Windows 10 update using Windows 10 Update Assistant.

restarting solved the Windows update stuck issue while the Windows reverted back to its original state for other users.
