  Before you answer, keep in mind that I tried the following things:

• Windows Update stuck at 'Check updates'

  Original title: Windows Update stuck

  I had to recover my laptop windows 7 back to out-of-box state system. Once presented to my office, I immediately went to Windows Update to install all of the updates that I needed. After installing SP1, and restart the computer, windows update to update the update agent, so he could get some more updates. He said he would close and re - open Windows Update, which she did, but now it is stuck on "check updates".

  The update that broke the update of Windows was "Windows Update Agent 7.6.7600.320"

  I have since made a recovery of the system to the State out-of-box three times and each time "Windows Update Agent 7.6.7600.320" installs Windows Update is stuck saying "check updates".

  I did tons of attempts to solve this problem, but it won't find more updates and I can't install more updates.

  I have also experienced problems with Windows Update still looking for updates when Windows Update 7.6.7600.320 has been installed automatically after the system update to SP1 (it was after doing a clean install of Windows 7).

  The following worked for me:

  1. manually installing KB3083710

  2. manually installing KB3102810

  3. restart the computer

  4. run the Windows Update Diagnostic tool to reset Windows Update (support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/971058)

  5 restart the computer again and search for updates

• Upgrade Windows 10 stuck at 'Check updates'.

  Recently, I started the download for Windows 10 using 'media creation tool. When the Setup program is started, it got stuck on "check updates", it's over an hour now and it is still stuck at 0%. What am I supposed to do?

  

  There are actually two options in creating media tool:

  • Update this PC now: Automatic Download, Installation.You don't need to do anything. You try this option.
  • Create an installation media for PC:Download an Installation file. When downloaded and opened, you find a setup.exe to run the Inplace upgrade. Make sure you only download the installation media according to your system.

  Use method 2 from here and follow as said.

  Use the recommended options for this PC check that you use the ISO to improve the current system. Skip step 6.

  Then after the download is complete, you must run the Setup program to upgrade your system. This is the guide:

• Windows Update stuck with 'Check updates'

  Separated from this thread.

  I have also the same problem rmahmud28 is seen except mine is Windows 7. He is stuck with 'Check updates' and I've already updated the Windows Update Agent. I tried some other stuff, like your FixIt tools, but nothing.

  No idea why or how... the problem was solved by itself. Looks like I have left no system check all these 300 updates available for download.

  Thanks anyway

• Update to Windows 7 stuck on 'Check updates'

  I've updated 31 updates yesterday because it had not been done in awhile and now it is stuck on updates. I tried some responses on this site but had no luck.

  Install the latest version of the Windows Update, in KB3172605 client included.

  https://support.Microsoft.com/en-us/KB/3172605

  Set automatic updates to 'never check updates' and restart Windows before installing.

• update to iOS iPad 2 stuck on "checking update". Cannot continue

  I have updated iOS on my Ipad2 last night and this morning a pop-up window displays "Check update" with the circle of rotation, then the screen goes to sleep after about 3-5 seconds.  In a loop that never ends.  That's in the same state that it was this morning.

  Try to reset the unit: hold the home and power buttons at the same time and continue to hold until the Apple appears (compared to 30 seconds - really). If you see the Apple reset is underway and the Slide to Unlock screen will display shortly. Once it is up, go to settings > general > about and see what is display Version.

  See you soon,.

• I'm stuck at "checking for Updates.

  EDIT # 2

  Thanks for the reply, I'll try it now.

  When I go to Windows Update, it starts checking and green moves in the progress bar. But it's like that. Even if I let it run for days, not a single update found.

  Final check of updates: never

  Updates have been installed: 11/06/2009 - basically a year ago

  You receive updates: for windows and other products from Microsoft Update

  I have 32 bit Windows Vista, Service Pack 2 and a good internet connection.

  EDIT # 1

  I found this thread:
  http://social.answers.Microsoft.com/forums/en-IE/vistawu/thread/3318c1fb-62e4-44F2-95ab-19ef48398091

  The person was having the same problem. I downloaded Windows Update Agent for Windows Vista (for a computer to x 86), I opened it just the way, you click on install and finish the installation process. Then I restarted the computer and tried to run updates windows again. Nothing has changed.

  See if this corrects the problem (restart the computer after the reboot like Vista loves to restart).

• Windows Update stuck at "checking for updates... "(Windows 7)

  No matter what I do, I can't get this thing to work.

  Let me start by saying, what operating system (Windows 7 Professional 6.1.7601 "Service Pack 1, Build 7601") is something that I had through my college (Dreamspark). This copy is enabled and works well so far.

  However, I tried to reinstall my Adobe applications, and he says that I can not install it because of a Windows update that I did not.

  Of course, I go to Windows Update and let it run.

  I let it run for hours, almost all night and day. It's just constantly "checking for updates... "scene and will never progress.

  I checked the newspaper and I get recurring errors with the prefix '0 x 8024... '. ».

  I did research on the error codes that are matched with the prefix said, and Microsoft took me to the "Diagnostic tool for Windows Update". I have let it run, then select it to troubleshoot Windows Update issues.

  It 'fixed' "questions," except one: "recent updates installation problems: don't not fixed."

  Large.

  I tried to run Windows Update again for a few hours, but nothing helped. He is always looking for updates even while I'm typing this.

  Can someone else offer suggestions? It's infuriating.

  Nope.

• Updates Windows 7 - stuck on 'check updates'...

  I have a HP desktop computer.  Running Windows 7 Home Premium.  Recently upgraded to the 10 Windows (while it was free).  Discovered that even after the analysis of compatibility says 'OK' I had to call Microsoft for more help and told me that my computer was not compatible.  Asked why the analysis said it was.  No real answer not followed.  Little has been said to restore to Windows 7.  After that I have known issues.  Before the update of window 10, this computer has been running great!

  in any case, I noticed recently that my computer is not updated.  When I go on ' check for updates ', it just stays on that.  The status bar does not move, but just on the 'check updates' for days.  The only way to stop it is to restart the computer.  But I know there are updates because my other computer is up-to-date (did not upgrade Windows 10 - but is currently running Windows 7).  So, I have sen the videos and articles on remove and clean up the folder "Software Distribution".  I did it several times and it DOESN'T WORK.  At one point, I decided to do a factory restore.  Took the computer to update 1.  At ran Windows Update and found 16 available updates and other things to seem to be good.  But noticed once the "Service Pack 1" has been downloaded and installed the Windows Update is blocked again.  So, I'm lost here.  What can I do?  Is there a solution?  Or should I trash this computer and buy a MAC?  Questions please ask.

  Help, please... Thank you!

  See this thread and perform the steps exactly.  I did the following steps on several computers and they work.
