First you should always be checking manually what updates are to be
down loaded. It is best to have all updates added manually for this reason. With 24 updates some could be conflicting updates or
updates you really don't need because you don't have a certain program that is calling for an update.
When you have these many updates happening at once they can
bog down your computer. I have had three updates get stuck where they won't finish updating.
Try using task manager to end the updating task or just turn off your computer by pushing and holding the button u push
to start the computer. sometimes this will take several attempts
to get the updates to stop. Then turn off automatic up dates and go into microsoft updates manually thru Internet explorer see if you can access your history of updates to see if you can
find what has been downloaded recently. Then click on updates and see what shows up. uncheck any update that is for a program
you do not have on your computer. Try this and see what happens

I have never had a Microsoft update take more than a few minutes. I would begin to wonder what was going on long before 30 minutes went by. Perhaps you should contact Microsoft about this.
