0x80070005 error searching for Updates
OK... my turn for some help, please
![]() WIn 7 Home Premium x64 SP1 Last updates installed 11/1/12 (the full set of Patch Tuesday updates) Last successful check 15/1/12 Every attempt at checking for updates currently fails with an 0x80070005 error I tried using the infamous subinacl 'fix' - and get 'subinacl not known' even after uninstalling and reinstalling it. As far as I can tell, the registry entries are OK anyway. The Fixit that I get from following the guided help fixed two items first time around - and didn't fix the problem. Second time around it fied one problem - and that's where we end up in a repeat situation - it fixes one item every time, but fixes nothing in terms of results. Any more info needed - let me know! Any advice gratefully received. |

BTDT - Indexing isn't even installed, according to the Services control panel (If someone wants to give me a proper name for the service?????)
I haven't done the Accesschk thing (yet) - mainly because the thread made it obvious that they didn't have too much of a clue ![]() |

In the control panel, you don't have Indexing Options?

So does that update as normal because those updates usually show in Windows Update when you click on Installed Updates.

Type in the search index and you should have a index option click on it and in the lower right their should be a pause button. Is that their?
Can you go back to a restore point? It wouldn't hurt to run sfc /scannow. Have you tried it from run as admin. Some times that changes for what ever reason. |
