When I have used Windows Update on my computers after Microsoft sends
the new data the next thing that happens is it is installed, or sometimes
fails to install and I have to go through the Windows Update again.

BTW, when I use Windows Update I do it manually, I don't  use the
Automatic Option, and I select the Custom Update Option to see what is
offered first before getting any Updates from MS.

I began using BBS's to learn about what I should do on my computer by
reading what other Users and SysOps wrote about.
I found lots of good information, and still do.
