MS did break the update function for 7. I downloaded the final rollup, and it's been "searching for updates on this computer" for about 30 hours at this point. I suspect it'll never finish.
That's a reason Microsoft is pushing so hard to get people to Windows 10 as it has a completely new update system.
The old update system is pretty much collapsing under it's own weight. Heard some pretty bad horror stories from some former MS employees. Helped explain why over time I was noticing more and more Microsoft products move away from it. Visual Studio and Office switched to other update methods over the past few years.
