    Settings/Update & security/Windows Update hangs


    Upgraded from ISO to 18995.1 via UUP Dump as was getting error 0x8007023e using Windows Update
    Now Settings/Update & security/Windows Update hangs
    If I then retry Windows Update it doesn't even start and I have to reboot to even get it run again after which it hangs
    Ran DISM but still the same
    Any suggestions?

    :)

    Windows Update suddenly hangs?

    Windows Update is suddenly hanging for some reason... I went and downloaded and installed the first bunch of updates, restarted when asked, and now when I go back to windows update I just get the window with a white box forever. Reboot and it still does it. This happens to be on my main machine, running windows 7.

    I've also noticed when I reboot it says configuring windows update, step 3 of 3, 47%. Maybe it somehow skipped something and is screwed forever?

    Windows 7 Ultimate (64) Security updates not installing.

    I have been having problems in installing the updates that I have listed below. For each update I attempted to install them individually but they would not install. I also downloaded the SURT 6.1 KB947821 v27. The problem has been going on now for about 2 months. (whenever the issue with the updates comes to mind I am never near my pc). Thank you in advance.
