At the very least, MS could fix this problem but by all indications they don't want to fix it. The tougher they make it, the harder I hang on to W7. Microsoft used to be a good company, but not any more.

I used the fix ThrashZone suggested & that worked great for me. How long it's fixed for, hard to say.
I d/l ed stand alone installer for kb3145739, turned off my updates (never check for updates), applied the patch, rebooted, turned on the updater (check for updates but let me choose....), rebooted, then about 5 mins later I had updates listed.
So that's something that worked for me on the 7 64, which I was having a lot of probs with. 7 32 so far hasn't had many problems.....yet
Look here:
It's time for Microsoft to fix the Windows 7 update slowdowns
I was just wondering which versions of WUC showed up.
If you are just complaining that updates took a long time to download last Patch Tuesday rather then complaining about daily scheduled checks taking forever then I'd suggest initiating the update downloads the following day. (The Wednesday after Patch Tuesday)
See the attachment for what I show when I run that Powershell command:
I patch on the Saturday/Sunday AFTER Patch Tuesday and it took several hours to get 5 machines up to snuff.
This has nothing to do with available bandwidth or the servers being slammed. Unless everybody is patching on Saturday or Sunday mornings now?

Suggest: Try removing
KB 3075851 - Aug 2015 - WUC: fixes mess due to KB3065987 [cuts down WUC memory usage, but hides Update notifications if GWX app is active] (replaces 3065987)
KB 3083324 - Sep 2015 - WUC: unspecified "improvements" (replaces 3075851)
KB 3083710 - Oct 2015 - WUC: unspecified "improvements" (replaces 3083324)
Commands needed for Elevated Command Prompt - Powershell:
wusa /uninstall /kb:3075851 /quiet /norestart
wusa /uninstall /kb:3083324 /quiet /norestart
wusa /uninstall /kb:3083710 /quiet /norestart
But only if you are having a problem with daily update checks using tons of RAM and taking a long time.
I agree with your comment:
There's no problem but things usually tend to work a little faster if updates are not downloaded on Patch Tuesday.
Yea I do not see an Important update pushed out which was KB3112343 which was a update client too
This is one the newest is supposed to reference = no reference found and a very long search time.
Yea I did a search and it's gone on mine too
One of these must of removed it and just left behind what was supposed to be left behind ?
Search was from programs and features view installed updates.

Callender....Question...... I went through the list of updates on my computer and the only one I found of those 3 you said to uninstall was KB3075851, so I uninstalled it. But you said "it fixes mess due to KB3065987" which I found also.
So the question is, should I uninstall both of those? (kb3075851 & kb3065987)??
