Windows 10: Windows 10 update err: 0x80070005 how to fix it location Australia

when update windows 10 this morning:
• Security Update for Lync 2010 X64 (KB3075593).
and Cumulative Update for Windows 10 for x64-based Systems (KB3081436).
after both update downloaded and installed, i was asked to re-boot my laptop. but i have got this err message:

We're having trouble restarting to finish the install. Try again in a little while. If you keep seeing this, try searching the web or contacting support for help. This error code might help: (0x80070005)

Hi,

Me too had this problem. After some research I found
Error code 0x80070005 is also known as "ACCESS DENIED." It usually occurs when you lack file or registry permissions that are required to install the update.

Here is a solution that fixed my problem. You may try this

is still there.

i have tried to follow some of the suggestions from few websites. but no of them fix this problem. I remember in windows 7 system, Microsoft has a tool to fix such kind of err. but in this new windows
10, where is the tool for fixing such kind of err?

hope someone or Microsoft can come with a good solution.
