I have my updates set to download updates but let me choose which to install. However, when I manually have it look for new updates, it spends forever searching and downloading the updates. Finally I get the option to install updates.

But then when I choose the ones I want to install, it begins downloading them all over again, making it take an intolerable length of time to do simple updates. I've used several Microsoft "fixes" but nothing seems to change it. Anyone know how I can get Windows to download the updates only one time?
