Receiving error 0x80070005 trying to fix error 80070424

Hello there,

I get the error code 80070424 when I try and enable my Windows Updates. I
went to the following thread, but I cannot complete his solution because I
get the error 0x80070005.

I went to the next URL, but that didn't work to alleviate my 0x80070005
problem.

I am running Vista 64-bit SP1 Home Premium.

Much thanks

To be more specific, when I try to run 'regsvr32 wuaueng.dll,' I get the
message "The module 'wuaueng.dll' was loaded but the call to
DllRegisterServer failed with the error code 0x80070005."

You could try running System File Check.

Start Orb -> type in command

Right-click Command Prompt and select Run as administrator

SFC /SCANNOW

Did you use Run As Administrator?
