    Error Code 0x80070002 while trying to delete files to free up memory


    I have a Lenovo Yoga running Windows 10I was trying to free up hard drive space and the largest file on my system is a zip file of GoPro footage >50GB that shows up in my "large and Unused files" search in Cleanup Recommendations. However, when I try to delete it, I get this error message and, when I try to locate it in the identified folder, it is missing. How do I locate the file and/or get the system to acknowledge that the memory is unused my entire HD is only 250GB?.

    :)

    Error 0x80070002 when trying to update Windows

    I have been having issues for months with Windows 10 updates failing due to Error 0x80070002 on my gaming laptop. The full message reads:

    2019-06 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1803 for x64-based Systems (KB4503286) -Error 0x80070002.

    I am currently on version 1803 (OS Build 17134.590) and I'm being told "You're currently running a version of windows that's nearing the end of support. We recommend you update to the most recent version of Windows 10 now to get the latest features and security improvements."

    I have followed the instructions on Error Code 0x80070002 Fixed – Eassos Step-by-Step Tutorial but this hasn't resolved the problem. Does anybody know how to fix this?
