    Update searches never end


    Windows 7 forum,
    Had a disk problem and had to reinstall windows 7 Home Premium.
    Since my installation disk was damaged I used a downloaded iso file.
    It installed correctly and I was able to activate it with a legal
    product key.

    I'm having a problem when I try to update windows or drivers.
    Windows starts a searching that never ends. I have tried all the fixes
    on the internet with no luck. I can access the internet and download
    files.

    Any suggestions?

    You can wait 20+ hours and you should get a list of updates...
    ..or you can install the latest Windows Update Client and the list should come in quicker.

    The KB linked to above replaces KB3102810 which claims to fix:
    Installing and searching for updates is slow and high CPU usage occurs in Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2
    Any replacement for KB3102810 should also include the fixes in KB3102810.
