Things are getting worse in Windows 7. I updated my laptop yesterday and it took about 90 minutes to search for the updates and another 15 to install them. That's the worst yet. Last month it was a lot faster. Still slow as molasses but not like this time. I'm now convinced Microsoft is causing this purposely.

The conspiracy theory is alive and doing well.

I don't know if this is working, I didn't try it.

It took around 40 minutes to find and install 6 updates on Windows 7.
No problems with Avast.

3 of the 4 Win 10 updates have downloaded but it's been stalled waiting for the big cumulative patch (KB3172985) for an hour. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Four Windows 10 updates and four more for Office 2007. No problems and installation, including the restart, took about 10 minutes. My build number is now 1511.10586.494, up from 420.

Windows 7 found 9 and installed the 8 that I selected in about 25 minutes.  Time and result were close to the same on all 3 Win 7 SP1 laptops.

Windows tablet updated fine and my Lumia 640 phone with Win 10 Mobile also got build 494 without issues. The phone took much longer because new builds on it install like a complete upgrade of the OS, migrating apps and all that stuff. It took over an hour to finish.
