I think you might have guessed wrong. I have an older laptop on Win7 and never known an update take hours.

I wasn't referring to the amount of time it takes i was referring to him saying he would turn off updates, and was pointing out support is due to stop in early 2020. :)

I'm guessing you're still on Windows 7? After January 14th 2020 you won't have to worry about updating it as it won't be supported unless they extend it again.

No Windows 10, it been slow ever since I 'upgraded' to it.

I didn't think you could turn updates off on Windows 10, not officially anyway?

My guess is your HDD is too slow or not much space on it.

Basically you tell it you are on a metered connection. You then get to pick when updates are downloaded.
