  • It would help if you went to speedtest.net and gave us your download speed.

  • @Spencer4134 This was probably for several days. Download speed is 10-100 Mbits. Anyway I should mention it, thanks. I found the solution and described it.

The following scenario helped for me:

Run from console console with admin privileges:
net stop wuauserv
net stop bits

delete folder: C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution

Run from console console with admin privileges:
net start wuauserv
net start bits

Then start update again.
