Windows update takes forever to find updates and stuck

[xkarolis]

Hello guys, so i reinstalled my windows like 4 times and it didn't work. I need to update all the drivers because that is important for the system. And I know that there is lots of updates that needed to be install. But as I mentioned in tittle it stucks. And if i restart pc. It says that i never tried to check for updates. I tried some youtube guides but didn't work. Last time I reinstalled my windows was 2 years ago. And I did not had that problem. So pleasee any tips ? And i am on laptop.

You can set the computer not go sleep and let it search for updates for 20+ hours. The list should come in by then. Or, you can manually install the latest version of the Windows Update Client (KB3135445) and that should reduce the time that it takes to get the list.

Be patient. The update process has changed/slowed for fresh installations.

Okay I will try, but stupid question can I install other updates? In that time? For example update my Nvdia drivers?

You can install other stuff during that time, but any restart of the computer might also restart the update search time.

Hi,
It's best to not do anything until windows updating is complete.
