Windows installing updates seem to have stopped

I recently had to re-install OSX Yosemite. Apparently the update I did earlier this month formatted the hard drive incorrectly. I was getting the spinning beach ball often and the system was running very slow.
Since having Apple techs install Yosemite correctly, and using my time-machine to re-install the rest of the system, I've been working on getting parallels and windows back up. Each time I opened windows I saw that there were updates. I would shut it down and a few updates would install. The most recent set of updates is 186!! The system has been installing update 164 for about 5 hours now.

I'm running a MacBook Pro from mid 2012 with:
OSX Yosemite version 10.10.1
8 GB of 1600 MHz DDR3
2.6 GHz Intel core i7
Parallels 10
Windows 7 home premium

the CPU load of the Windows update process seems to be fluctuating between 10 and 13 % - substantially more than anything else running.
There are no other applications open.

Any ideas what is going on? Can I intervene?

Thanks,
David
 
This issue appears to have resolved. Apparently the system actually needed 12 plus hours to install that update. I haven't seen that before.
