Vista Tutorial - error code 80070005

When I try to use windows update on Vista I get this error code 80070005, and
it will not let me check for updates. I can not find this anywhere on the
help site. Can anyone tell me what it is, and how I fix it. Thanks

NOTE that this is a .NET group, albeit general, not a general Microsoft Q&A
group.

The error is access denied.

This is most common when you are logged into an account that does not have
admin priveleges. Even when you are on one that has admin priveleges, you
should get the UAC warning.

Here is a forum entry that might help:
