    Settings app not opening. Windows update fails. Error code 0x80070005


    The settings app in my PC wasn't opening, so I search the internet and found that by performing an update, I could erase the problem. But when I try to update, it says that the update failed at the last moment (88% completed). Please help me fix it. Error code 0x80070005. Thank you.

    :)
