Hello,

What I tried:

1) I tried running this in administrator command prompt:

ren C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old

ren C:\Windows\System32\catroot2 Catroot2.old

net start wuauserv

net start cryptSvc

net start bits

net start msiserver

2) I tried updating windows in safe mode,

**3)**I tried disabling every non Microsoft service in msconfig

**4)**I tried updating using the windows 10 update assistant

Does anyone know how to fix it?

Updates from version 2004 to 20H2 usually can be faster because both of them share the same core.

If from version before 2004, it usually be longer.
