Error Code 80070005 Windows Update KB 2556532, 2536276 and 2559049
I had repeated failures since August 10 tent to install these updates - whenever they fail with this error message. The troubleshooting page does not list it. Someone out there has a solution? I had other problems with error Code 643, but they seem to have resolved themselves. The strange thing is that when I log on page update sometimes says "Windows is up to date" and sometimes he lists these three updates for installation - but shows them the history of the update always fails. Is the problem with the updates themselves or with the updated mail system, perhaps? I use Vista business with Service Pack 2.
HI, AndyBanks,
Have you looked into the list of the updates installed to see if these updates are already installed?
If you have / are receiving code 643, try the fixit here

Hey gordont,
Error code 80070005 means generally that you're not quite allowed to install updates. Access may be denied if you have logged on to the computer as a standard user and this account does not have permission to install updates.
To resolve the problem follow the steps that are listed in the methods below in the order listed, starting with method 1.
Method 1:
Log the computer as an administrator or as a user with administrative rights.
Method 2:
One of the most common causes of this error code (access denied) is the Anti Virus and Anti Spyware software running on the computer. You can try to disable them, and then try the updates again.
Method 3:
Try to reset your default security settings.
Reference:

Method 4:
Reset Windows Update components.
See:

This should be it.
Note: Runs the computer without antivirus software or firewall is a potential threat to the computer; don't forget to activate the security software after completing the troubleshooting steps and after you have identified the problem.

update of sql server 2005 service pack 3 error code 6D9E Windows update security does not accept the update
Hey lasdj,
Thanks for posting in the Microsoft answers site!
If you receive Windows Update error 6d9e while installing SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 3 by using Windows Update, it means that the installation folders and directories are compressed or encrypted.
To fix this problem, make sure the folder locations where you are installing the service pack to aren't compressed or encrypted, or specify a different folder and then run Windows Update again.
Therefore, remove the compression of the DATA directory and run together to the top again.
Remove compression from the C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server folder and see if you are able to install the updates without any problem.
See the links below for more details:

I also understand that he is supposed to be a permission problem, but I am the administrator and I turned off my Norton Internet Security Anti Virus protection with no., which does not help.
I'd appreciate any help I can get.
Thank you.
