Windows 7 laptop updates stuck but not frozen?

My laptop had 9 updates and it's been on 6 of 9 all night. It's not frozen, my keys still work but I'm worried it's stalled. My space in C was low (ssd) so maybe it didn't get everything it needed? I don't know... What should I do?

If you have system restore enabled, power off the computer if it is still stuck at this point. If it failes to boot, boot into the recovery partition (not the manufacturer's recovery but windows recovery) and do a system restore. After the system restore is finished free up at least 10% of your disk, then manually install the updates by going to windows update. Let it install while you are logged into windows.
