When you download and install the stand-alone installation version:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

What happens?

The same as if I would install through the Update Site WU.
Error: Access is denied.

Thank you.

Kind regards.

I have problem with this error: 0x80070005 (Access is denied).

I think that the access to some regkeys is denied and that probably some are
missing.
Is there any good solution or software program to solve this problem?


Thank you.

Regmon is a Registry monitoring utility that will show you which applications are

I know. I have tried this two programs.
I also tried the Windows Live OneCare. The program found the problem just in
registry files:
HKCR\Iisctl.IisServiceControl\
HKCR\Iisctl.IisServiceControl.1\
HKCR\MBSA2.Scanner\CurVer\


Is this the problem? I tried all the solving techincs and no luck. I hope
that Microsoft will fix this BUG, this is not ok. :/

Thank you.

Thanks, TaurArian. Everything in the MS kb applied . . . except that
whenever I set logging to verbose, it kept getting changed back (I even tried
changing it again midstream, etc.) so I couldn't figure out where the problem
was. Regmon allowed me to find and correct the problem.

KB that almost gives a solution:
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=873148

Regmon (the sysinternals site is blocked by our filters but the utility is
also available through technet):
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sys...es/regmon.mspx

My restricted keys were:
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\EventLog\Se curity\Security
HKLM\SYSTEM\ControlSet004\Services\EventLog\Securi ty\Security

Thanks. :-)
