If you can you shed some light on this, it would be very helpful? As these are not required for general users we left them out of the modified script. The standard Windows 7 downloads will cover almost everything including retail and OEM so you can use the key from the sticker. The only thing they do not cover is the OEM pre installed keys, which if the computer was purchased from HP, Dell etc will be the key you find in Magic Jellybean and is different to the one on the sticker. That is quite correct, I have done similar many times.
I appreciate your work, thank you very much :D. Thanks mate, much appreciated. I remember creating them ages ago and yes, I did use ei. DD Lang 3 months ago.

I've just downloaded a latest Windows Server Standard Version And another "same here". No 3rd party AV solution to blame.
Disappointed to see this has been a known problem for some time with no official word from Microsoft on a resolution. Time for a slashdot article maybe? The more servers we deploy the more I'm feeling my monthly updates taking much longer and becoming more painful. I had 3 x R2 servers this morning took 20 mins for the May updates. Up at the top. Not sure if it does help as the other thread I linked at the top has 11 votes. Same thing. Very slow when installing updates We experienced similar issues after upgrading to Windows Domain Controllers.
Windows updates on our DCs were taking hours to perform the monthly rollup when pushing them manually. The DCs on the other hand were receiving this update. What we witness when checking our update status the following was occurring:. This step during the update process was taking hours.
This update was being pushed to all DCs. THe DCs running on Acropolis did not experience the same slowness when installing this update. I am still investigating why that is. I hope this helps others that may be experiencing similar issues.
This is a real issue with Server It's not individual systems. This issue occurs on every Server host and VM that I manage. The update timescale is just way too long. It's got to the point where there is not enough time to backup all of our VM's, then update them all, in a night. Who wants to spend all night nursing a HV host through updates anyway.
After disabling Windows Defender before updating updates take about one and a half hour instead of almost four hours. Just to share my experience: I updated 4 physical nodes cluster R2 with last Tuesday patch in about two hours. Now I'm updating a 4 nodes physical cluster and the first node is still updating for over two hours All 6 six servers download and install the June updates in minutes, and minutes to reboot.
The two servers failed repeatedly when attempting to even check for updates. So I rebooted both servers, was finally able to check for updates from Microsoft. Then it takes about 30 minutes to download and install. Then I actually timed the first one and it took 34 minutes to reboot back to the logon screen. This is really, really bad.
Currently waiting about an hour or more on multiple VMs using "sconfig" to install updates on CPU fluctuates and is never really idle, and definitely not being maxed out. Why the hell does it take so long to do updates? Has anyone ever put in a ticket with Microsoft so we know they are at least aware of the problem?
I've been on a few forums and tons of people are having this problem. Out of about 8 VMs, I think I had one install at 5am on it's own Some updates installed on one of my Terminal Servers running Server this morning, kicking out all the users logged on that particular server Rebooted on the "preparing updates" screen.
Stayed there for 25 minutes and then rebooted again. Came back to the "installing updates" screen for another 30 minutes and rebooted again!
Came back again to the "installing updates for another 15 minutes and finally came back online! I have some servers still running Server and those are much faster to update. I greatly regret throwing away my Citrix farm infrastructure running on Server for these Windows Server terminal servers.
Lot of issues with processor and RAM ressources, freezes etc. Microsoft should look at the English definition of the word "upgrade" because moving from to was definitely not an upgrade in many aspects.
We can clearly live and experience what can a monopolistic empire can do to customer care and service Same issues here: server takes forever to install updates, seems to be stuck already in "Preparing windows" after clicking on "restart" to install the update. KB from takes 56,57 minutes from clicking on "check for updates" until OS is rebooted. It makes no difference, if updates are installed directly via Windows Update or manually Is it possilble to get some kind of useful Information from Microsoft concerning slow Server updates?
I can confirm as well. Windows updates are running on a single logical processor of the 24 available 2x Xeon E We see this on our other servers with completely different hardware as well.
Same exact behavior. Only 1 logical of the 16 is engaged Xeon E Neither of these systems is doing anything but installing Windows Updates. No other loads.
Therefore, at least from my vantage point, Windows Updates on Server would be much faster if they used more than one logical processor. Install KB first!!! Microsoft strongly recommends you install the latest servicing stack update SSU for your operating system before installing the latest cumulative update LCU. SSUs improve the reliability of the update process to mitigate potential issues while installing the LCU and applying Microsoft security fixes. For more information, see Servicing stack updates.
Can you see why people are frustrated? Standard corporate blame game on the little guy with no say in what they have to provide? We are NOT thick. We have been doing this for longer than some of your own employees, so give us some credit. Small businesses and schools relying on your products, because our leaders don't know any better and think Microsoft are the only solution.
Downtime is not an option for us, we have no resilient server farm. This month with KB we have seen a couple of failures on a couple of our servers. To me it seems like an issue with the trustedinstaller perhaps timing out while shutting down, we have to manually download the patch and it finally went thru on some of these.
Are there any hotfixes for these issues on Windows ? I've finally given up and just disabled Windows Update and the Module installer service. On is 'just' a DC with nothing else going on. But be carefull with Server , there are still some things that need to be fixed.
Total Patch Time CU without. I have dealt this feedback and can provide you that update size alone is not the matter. It is in the code. If I am able to install a server in a time of 3 minutes the system cannot be powerless enough to patch anything within a reasonable time. Just for fun we could install a second server from scratch to make the sillyness of this bug obvious.
Showing this a complete clean installation should remove all doubts the issue is by design, and MSFT has fixed it in later code. If your'e in a domain environment configure it from Group Policy to directly connect to an update server in your environment such as WSUS Server.
Or with gpedit. Mark it as answer if your question has solved. MCT Regional Lead. Please check the statistics above and videos.
Tried standalone installs of SSU updates from update catalog - one failed, the other said "not applicable" - OK, let's try it your way MS. Windows update installed build First pass - downloaded updates, reboot required. Windows update says updates ready to install - I don't trust it. Why can't you get this fixed MS? Has anyone checked to see if installing this update, rebooting, and they doing other updates makes Windows Updates on any better?
Just upgrade your servers to server this is faster dan installing updates on a machine. I hear Hollio's frustrations and had a chuckle to myself.
Microsoft really need to focus their customers or one day they will regret it. I have trained my whole career in their products and it now makes me feel I have to re-train, unacceptable. I'm piling on this thread. Years on Server , we never had issues like this. Since migrating to Server a couple years back, updates have been an endless nightmare every month - stuck on "Downloading Updates Systems almost unusable for hours.
I can't even gracefully stop the Windows Update service on some of these! It just hangs at Stopping. The whole thing is a joke. We're stuck on for now due to needing CIS benchmarks.
As soon as they have one for , we're done with I have been following this thread for a while. I have found some relief by doing the updates via this method.
If you hit ctrl-c twice in a row it closes the CLI and you have to start over. I have taken considerable time out of the update process by switching to this method and not using the GUI. I also have figured out how to force stop the frozen TIworker process service that hangs for an hour before finally releasing and letting the server reboot. Who sets a time out of an hour I use remote process viewer from lizard systems from another domain joined machine to look at the services running and stuck on the server.
You can kill or restart the services using this tool I am also wondering if it might be time for class action lawsuit against microsoft for lost productivity due to this horrible update system they have inflicted on us.
Windows Modules Installer Worker runs for hours and hours. What on Earth is Microsoft doing to our systems??
This is completely unacceptable for production servers! And Microsoft seems unwilling to do anything about it. The behavior is utterly unjustifiable.
There's no process that needs to be doing whatever it is they're doing for that long. Given Microsoft has quietly gotten UCC laws changed across the country over the last 25 years they have made themselves almost impossible to sue. And in the current political climate I doubt the government would do anything to stop Microsoft's monopolistic, overbearing and intrusive practices. This is astounding Started it on July 3rd. Added a Task Scheduler task to shutdown the VM at PM with conditions that include "Start the task only if the computer is idle for 10 mins.
It has been running 5 solid days without shutting down! It is never idle long enough for the condition to be satisfied. Version Build Willkommen auf ComputerBase! Hier anmelden.
