    Can't update my Windows Seven!


    My Dell has been checking for updates for over 48 hours now without any results! Any suggestions would be quite helpful.

    Thanks, John / Airpix

    First, set Windows Updates to never check for Updates.
    Next reboot your computer, then install KB3020369, if not installed.
    Then install KB3172605.

    Windows updates should return to normal. You can then reset your updates to automatically check for updates if desired
