J'ai installé Windows 7 fresh and installed SP1. Now, when I try to check manually for Windows Updates ça reste bloqué on the *Checking for updates* screen.
J'ai essayé running the tools in *[Comment reset Windows Update components?](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/971058)*, but this n'a pas résolu le problème either:
No matter what I do ça reste bloqué on the "Checking for updates..." screen and goes no further.

Re: Windows 7 SP1 Windows Update bloqué lors de la recherche de mises à jour
## Correctif
Microsoft released a [Windows Update Client Update](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3161647) which is part of the [July 2016 Update Rollup](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3172605) to fix the long [hang at Windows Update scan](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3200747).

This update contains some improvements to Windows Update Client in
Windows 7 Service Pack 1 (SP1). This includes the following:
- **An optimization that addresses long scan time for updates that's reported on some computers.**

**[32 Bit](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=53335)**

Stop Windows Update service. This [speeds up the setup of MSU updates](https://superuser.com/a/1044548/174557) and the useless steps from *Moab* **are not required** (reboot causes that the WU service is stopped until it gets started via trigger when Internet is available). Cela peut être fait [from the ligne de commande](https://superuser.com/a/1057487/174557), or [from the Service Manager window](http://computerstepbystep.com/windows_update_service.html).
-
Try the downloaded update and see if it speeds up the installation of Updates.
To be able to install the update you first need to install the [April 2015 servicing stack update for Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3020369) update (again, stop WU service before trying to install the MSU).
