System update updates microsoft windows
Evert time I switch on my pc, could be 20 times in a day, I keep getting the message: windows is configuring updates, then about 10 mins later it says: unable to configure will revert updates.. why is this happening and how do I stop it? I have windows 7..
You can reset Windows Update components by running the Fixit on this page. But, if there's malware present, it will continue to reset the connection to the update servers:

Suggest you download and save the Fixit. Then configure the system to Clean boot prior to running it:

Once the Fixit has been downloaded and the system booted to the Clean state, check to see that the native Windows firewall is now On if a 3rd party firewall was being used previously. Now run the Fixit and choose the Default mode. Restart once it's done and see if the system can connect to the update servers. If it can not, then run the Fixit again and choose the Aggressive mode. Restart when it's finished running and check for updates.
