So do I understand correctly that after installing KB4052978 manually, Windows (Microsoft) Update will work again and give me results of the update check?
What exactly happened that the update check doesn't finish, when a few months ago it worked?
In your post, you wrote that "updates this month take a long time", from this sentence it is not clear whether in your case the update check actually finished.

- Yes.

- I do not know why it fails.

I always update with Internet Explorer and Microsoft Update. When one month I see that it takes more than 3 hours to finish, I manually download IE8 update of that month from the catalog, I install it, I look for updates again and then in about 5 minutes it finishes and shows the rest of the updates.

Remember that this month's the updates come out today (Tuesday). Maybe you should wait until they leave to finish updating and not repeat it 2 times.

The catalog shows 3 Framework updates are available.  My MU has been running for a while now and hasn't picked them up yet.  I'll let it run a good portion of the day just to see what happens.  If nothing by the EOD, I'll just manually download them.

I have a theory about this: any update that replace 29 or more previous updates cause a serious delay in WU/MU update routine. For now, any new IE8 cumulative update and some of office updates are subject to the bug. I call them "troublesome updates".

I am unsure if a "troublesome update" search on WU/MU website via Internet Explorer may be really finished. One time i wait more than a day w/o positive result. The search via automatic update service (known as "yellow shield in system tray") is more effective, but also very long. For a single "troublesome update" it may take from 1.5 hour to more than a day, depending of PC parameters. In any case the search consume one CPU core for all that time.

It depends of MS software and patches you have installed. Your system may require more "troublesome updates" than just KB4052978.

On a fluke I checked the Office 2003 catalog and there's one there for us older users too.

This update (KB4011641) can be installed only over (still supported until April 2018) WordViewer application and useless for Office 2003 users.

After manually installing the 2 updates of the Office compatibility package (wordconv2007-kb4011607-fullfile-x86-glb.exe and xlconv2007-kb4011605-fullfile-x86-glb.exe), when searching again it shows in 4 minutes:Screenshot - 09_01_2018 , 20_47_54.jpg

  • KB4011607 replace 33 of previous updates.
  • KB4011201 replace only 20 of previous updates.
  • KB4011605 replace exactly 29 of previous updates. Its predecessor was KB4011205, that was released in November 2017 and replace 28 of previous updates. Did it cause a delay in updating at the time?

Since October 2017, it is usual to update hours and hours, such as 8h, 12h and in November 2017, even days. I always manually install the IE8 and the 2 Office compatibility. For the rest I use WU/MU and it takes very little.

Thanks to experts here, it all makes sense.

Subject to anyone pulling me back from edge of cliff, on my XP with Office 2003 and (for the moment) trouble-causing Avast, I shall be installing only:

  • First, manually:  Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 8 for WES09 and POSReady 2009 (KB4052978)
  • Then, using the shield or MU:
    • 2018-01 Security Only Update for .NET Framework 4 on WES09 and POSReady 2009 (KB4054173)

    • 2018-01 Security Only Update for .NET Framework 2.0 on WES09 and POSReady 2009 (KB4054178)

    • 2018-01 Security Only Update for .NET Framework 3.0 on WES09 and POSReady 2009 (KB4055229)

  • NOT INSTALLING YET (due to Avast file-copy problems clarified by heinoganda):  KB4056615 and KB4056941

  • Nothing to install for the Office 2003

But ... I wouldn't MIND if everyone else went FIRST and let me know if it's ... safe.

HEY - does the Avast annoyance interfere with the good updates (my first four above)?  Heinoganda - what do you think?

I got tired of waiting for MU.  I waited a respectful 8 hours out of courtesy for it to do it's thing and I lost patience.  Anyway, I manually installed the 3 .Net updates and nothing else.  The first 2 took about 5 or so minutes each.  The last one took probably about 20 minutes, but no problems to report and it rebooted fine.
