    Hello aacm,

    The Windows Updates for 7 have been running slow for many users ever since 10 was released.
    I would suggest you install the latest Windows Update Client https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3138612
    This seems to speed things up a little, especially on new installs. But there will still be a wait.

    Also try at different times of the day/night. I'm in the UK and tend to get updates quicker in the morning before 12pm than I do at night.
