Asking you for help again...
Last night i switched of my computer and noticed that it stayed on to install 96 new Windows 7 update files. Restarted it this morning and before Windows turned on it started an update configuration. Process stoped on 15% for around 30min. After that message about Windows update configuration failure appeared on screen and notice that Windows is reverting to previous configuration. Computer is in this state for last 2 hours. Is this normal?? Can i switch of my computer manually (though it does ask me not to before process is over)???

How long it might take Windows Update to successfully install 96 updates depends on the speed (and condition) of the computer and internet connection.

My next step would be to reboot and attempt the update(s) again.
