Updates Fail after comp crashed

During an update my computer crashed. Now when I use windows updater, all the
downloads fail. I get error 80070057. I checked a previous post on the error,
however it did not help me.

0x80070057 -2147024809 ERROR INVALID PARAMENTER - E INVALIDARG

One or more arguments are not valid error - Invalid proxy server name
was specified in the user's IE settings and hence
WinhttpSetProxySettings call fails with E INVALIDARG error. BITS puts
the job in TRANSIENT ERROR with the same error code. For ex, if the
proxy server is set to http://foo/bar/proxy.pac, this error will be
seen. This error is also seen when credentials are supplied such that
scheme is not NTLM/Negotiate, but username/password is NULL, since that
is not valid (WinhttpSetCredentials fails with E INVALIDARG. BITS 1.5
puts the job into ERROR state with BG E INVALID RESPONSE in the above 2
cases, because of error code mapping E INVALIDARG is always mapped to
(BG E INVALID SERVER RESPONSE)
