Error code 0x80070005....update install

When I try to install the Update for Background Intelligent Transfer Service
(BITS) 2.0 and WinHTTP 5.1 I get the error code 0x80070005....does anyone
know what I could do to fix this so that I can install it and fix my computer?

0x80070005 is an Access Denied error, and is most likely caused because
you're not logged onto the Administrator account.

I'm having the same problem. I am logged in as administrator. I tried the
regedit fix from the knowledge base and it didn't help (the permissions it
said to grant were already in place). Other ideas?

I experienced the same difficulty half a year ago. I tried every suggested
solution from the web
with no result. Two weeks later I discovered some encrypted files in the
windows directory.
Months ago I deliberately encrypted my Temp directory (using builtin
NTFS-encryption).
Since installers are using this directory apparently some encrypted files
found their way
into the windows directory.
The "Access Denied" error was caused by the fact that the Windows Update
Service runs
under "SYSTEM" account and thus cannot read (decrypt) files encrypted by
other users/accounts.
After decrypting the files Windows Update was up and running again.

That one was a real b*tch...

To find those encrypted files I used Total Commander (www.ghisler.com).

I hope that helps.

Best regards

Here we go:

- install and run Total Commander.
- change into the windows directory
- select "Search..." in the "Command"-menu.
- the field "Search in:" should read something like "C:\Windows" (your
windows directory)
- select the tab "Advanced"
- check "Attributes"
- check "Encrypted" (leave the other checkboxes grey)
- click on "Start search" (this will take a while)
- you should get a list of the encrypted files (if any)
- when the search finishes click on "Feed to Listbox"

Repeat this for every found file:
- right click on the file (you need to hold down the right button for a
little while)
- the standard explorer context menu should come up
- select "Properties"
- click "Advanced"
- uncheck "encrypt content" (i am not sure about the exact naming) it is the
bottom checkbox
- click "OK"
- click "OK" again

Best regards

I, too, recently encrypted using NTFS tools and had the same problem. To
resolve, simply delete the Downloader directory and BITS will recreate. All
is well after this simple trick.
