What is going on with this update??? 90 minutes and its still supposedly installing, making my computer really sluggish. Is there a way to stop it and uninstall it? Please remember that the owners of computers also have the right to use their hardware from time to time, and perhaps, might have work to do.

Warning to anyone reading this who hasn't yet installed 2026-11 Security update: DON'T DO IT. IT'S A DISASTER!!!

    I already paused the update and rebooted my computer. Is there a way to permanently block this errant update?

    Hello,

    I would recommend that you keep the update going, even though it slows the PC down. This is so that core system files won't be in a state of "limbo" due to having paused updates. Some bigger updates take a little while to install, especially on older/slower hardware.

    What percent has it stopped at?

    I hope this information helps, and I hope to hear back from you.
