I really hate the Windows Cumulative updates, they are so slow downloading and installing,

4 days my laptop has been trying to run a windows cumulative update and I have been unable to use my laptop as my laptop ends up running extremely slow.

I have tried everything to get my laptop to run the update quicker, but to no success at all.

Microsoft either come up with a way of getting these updates to run super fast, or completely stop these updates / reduced down the amount of stuff it is trying to udate our laptops with.
