Hi,
I decided to open a different thread for this. Ok, I'm getting this
error 0x80070005 when I try to run windows update. Apparently is an
elevation permissions issue. I have looked around how to reset those
permissions to the ones that I had.
I disabled UAC to get rid of the annoying messages of needing to be an
admin to do anything on Vista. I read in a blog that turning off this
would remove those messages. It did. I now think that this is somehow
related with the permissions problems that I'm having.
Now I'm more sure because I have tried to install TortoiseSVN and is
having the same issue with the permissions. Apparently most software
don't require this elevation permissions, but tortoiseSVN does.
So two questions:
- How can I reset to the previous state without reinstalling the
machine? Turning UAC on back didn't work. Checking DCom permissions and
grant full permissions to the local admin account, my local user and my
domain user didn't work either.
- Is there any way to install updates manually when your windows
update manager seems not to have the right permissions? Like a
stand-alone application.
Thanks,
Miguel
