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!!!

    Hello,

    If you would really like to stop the update from installing, please download the Windows Update Troubleshooter (wushowhide.diagcab) from http://download.microsoft.com/download/F/2/2/F22D5FDB-59CD-4275-8C95-1BE17BF70B21/wushowhide.diagcab, and then once it's done downloading, launch wushowhide.diagcab and then in the window that pops up, follow the instructions to hide KB5132061.

    Once you do that, you shouldn't see that update anymore and your PC shouldn't install it anymore.

    Let me know how this goes.
