• Windows 7, updates takes forever

  OK, so I recently bought a computer. It is refurbished and I tried to upgrade to Windows 10 because it is Windows 7 and I love the way Windows 10 looks. in any case I order to get Windows 10 I check for updates and I did and waited a few hours and it maintains simply check it says that he has never checked for updates of what it means it will take a long time so he could check or is there something wrong please help if anyone can.

  You may need to wait 24 hours or so that the updates of Windows 7 these days is very slow to download.

  A better way is to use the media tool to upgrade:

  Download Windows 10 media creation tool

  Simply select this option of PC/improvement.

  After you download the Windows 10 installation files using this tool, you can upgrade your existing 10 Windows operating system, or you can create the bootable USB drive or DVD to install Windows 10 key later. You can also save the installation files to the ISO in offline mode file format, if you wish.

  

• Windows updates take forever...

  Dear Sirs,

  I have a windows Vista computer, and lately I'm trying to fix these windows problems to update on my own mistakes. I am trying to find answers on the Web sites, but whenever I'm digging into the problems, a new error keeps appearing.

  It seems that I missed files on the windows updates, or some files in the registry are incorrect, and now windows updates keep loading for ever... I even don't see the c:\windows\system32\catroot folder on my PC that is bound to the windows updates.

  Can you please tell me what to do? Windows updates are really important to the PC, so I really need the assistance of an expert in the field with my windows updates.

  Looking forward for your answer,

  Frank

• Check for updates takes forever, download runs and runs and does not complete

  I am running Windows 7 Premium family with Service Pack 1. Verification of updates runs for hours and sometimes he can't find anything. I ran it last night 29/08/2016 and it took 8 hours to complete. I chose a download of only 75kb and it worked for four hours (0 KB and 0% complete) 30/08/2016. Last updates were installed with success was the 28/08/2016 21:18, since then these are the problems that I had with.  Is the best thing to (restore to an earlier point in time) or remove the installed updates? Is there something I otherwise should I do to correct this situation. I seem to be other problems. Appreciate any help.

• Defragment drive in HP Assistant update takes forever.

  I use HP Assistant development on pc Pavilion Elite e9260f, and the session to defragment took more than 16 hours.   The computer has an i5 processor and a 1 TB hard drive. Is this normal?

  Indywalkers, welcome to the forum.

  No, this seems to be abnormal.  I suggest stop defragmentation and try to use Disk Defragmenter in system tools; Start / All Programs / Accessories / System Tools / Disk Defragmenter.  I just defragged my HDD (500 GB) in less than 10 minutes.  It can a little longer if your HARD drive has not been defragmented for awhile.

  NOTE: When I used support Assistant to defragment my HARD drive failed.  It worked perfectly using the method I suggested above.

  Please let us know if this solved your problem or not.

• NB305 10F takes forever to start

  Hi all

  I have a brand new (two days!) NB305 10F Netbook and even it is a very nice piece of kit to mount on a half hour or so to start!

  I didn't do anything to this thing of the hook aopart up to my wireless home network and since then stop after that it simply does not work correctly. I tried to power off and re-boot in safe mode, but it still takes forever!

  What's up (Toshiba help line will get ' phoned later this afternoon!) and how do I back out of the box settings? Can I start and enter the BIOS with F2 or F8 magic or similar to reset everything?

  Any ideas would be most appreciated.

  Thank you.

  On each new Toshiba notebook is preinstalled original Toshiba recovery image. This recovery image contains many tools and utilities as well as additional applications. Most of them start by operating system and slows down the startup time.

  Please note: when you get the new book of Microsoft updates are set to auto so when you start your laptop and there is LAN or WLAN connotation your laptop will start to automatically download the updates and it will slow down the performance of any computer laptop.

  What you need is the optimization of the OS.

  Please make all below even if you have done some before as it is often the set of operations which solves
  the question.

  Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double-click on the device - driver tab - click
  Update the drivers (this will probably do nothing) - then RIGHT click the drive - UNINSTALL - REBOOT
  This will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue below.
  
  Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a loose cable or
  slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

  Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
  ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and
  contacts data with a pencil eraser.

  Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and
  manufacturer of device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

  Hope these helps.
