Taking too long to download apps

So, after you've restarted your computer, go to Can't find Office applications in Windows 10, Windows 8, or Windows 7? If Office did not install, try to reinstall after switching to a wired connection. This can help speed up the installation because a wired connection is usually faster than a wireless one. After that, restart the Office installation. The Office offline installer may help bypass potential proxy, firewall, antivirus, or Internet connection issues that might occur during an Office installation.

For steps to install an offline version of Office, see Use the Office offline installer and select the correct tab for your version of Office.

For information about how to turn off your antivirus software, check your antivirus manufacturer's website. Uninstalling your antivirus software may also help. Don't forget to reinstall it after Office is finished installing and if you turned it off, be sure to turn it on again.

Since there are a number of possible culprits that could be causing the problem, it only seems necessary to provide you with a number of possible fixes.

From time to time, Apple is actually the one having the problem. In rare instances of software glitches, a reboot can get things up and running again.
