If you run into Windows update taking a long time (days) to update packages, this procedure may help:

(2) Stop 'Windows Update' from the Service Manager

Type 'services' in the windows start menu search box.
Launch 'services'
Find 'Windows Update' in the service list and stop it.

(3) Install Windows6.1-KB3020369 by running it to see if it is needed or not.
