don't be fooled by this statement. download speed for windows update has
little to do with weather you are useing 7 or 10 with the same service plan
you are useing.
it has to do on how much traffic there is on the microsoft server, how much
trafic on comcast. like how many people on comcast in your area is streaming
netflix and hulu. etc. if microsoft server in your area is down.
if you are streaming netflix on your system and trying to download windows
updates at the same time etc.
it could be many things that slow down the updates..
again it could be that a critical update failed and can block any further
updates from being installed until the failed update has been installed.

With all of the problems updating a Windows 7 computer, why not update
to Windows 10, it might actually take less time!

Interesting, on my old windows 7 computer, I could never get any windows 7
updates since the first of April. When I did a check for updates, It said
progressing and never would do anything from that point on. I even used the
Microsoft windows update component repair tool with no luck.

Subject: Windows Update Question
Hello,
Two important updates were available for Windows 7 today. I have the
fastest residential internet service from Comcast. I am wondering why
downloading these updates has been in progress for several hours. Last
week, thirteen important updates took almost six hours to download and
install. Could someone offer an explanation for this. Running WE 9.4, Win
7 HP 64-bit, I.E. 11 on an Acer laptop with 3 gigs of ram and a dual-core
AMD processor.
Thanks,
Dan
