MS updates today?

Is anyone elses' Windows 10 Home PC acting weird and slow today? Could it be MS us uploading updates to Windows or Office 365? My wife's Win 10 Professional PC is fine. And she has Office 2010 that does not get updates. Could MS have sent put a defective patch or update?

Check the update and see if your computer is downloading the update or installing it? I just checked and my computer tried to update the office 365 and failed 3 times since yesterday. That would slow things down.

I don't know how do that. I cold and warm booted the PC this morning and what ever up date might have started is not finished uploading to install it.

Click on the start menu. Click on settings. Click on update and security then it will tell you. In my computer it failed to update.

In my experience, when MS is pushing out updates, it slows the computer down, especially my oldest computer. Try again tomorrow. Things may be back to normal.

OK, thanks I was able to check. Only message was my PC is up to date as of 6 something this morning. And that it can not currently install and run Windows 11. The second item I know, duh! Machine still slow, so I might want to restart Windows again (now this afternoon).

The Second Tuesday of each month is Patch Tuesday. OP seems to have a problem with an update, which explains his troubles.

After leaving the computer a lone for a while it started acting normal again. This happens from time to time when MS is sending out patches. I just wanted to know if I might have gotten a bad update. Seems just like most of the time I notice nothing different.

I have a very precise way of knowing when WinDOZE is grinding away at an update… it is ANYTIME I have to quickly do something on the PC!

There are a couple of good rules to schedule updates.
1. Schedule updates for a time and date convenient to you.
2. Delay your updates for a least a week. Let others discover the bugs.
