Windows 10: Windows Update error 0x80070005. ANY FIX PLS? (not the same fixes such as AppData...

Hello, Redditors.

I had a Lenovo G50-80 laptop to fix. I first installed ESET Smart Security Premium to remove some viruses/trojans from it, then I deleted some unneeded files to free up disk space. I converted the hard disk from MBR to GPT and fix things up.

It was time to install updates. I clicked on the "Check for updates" button and i had a different error. I needed to fix the registry to have the wuauserv service back since it was removed.

I clicked on the "Check for updates" button again and I got, as you can guess from the title, 0x80070005.

I tried to find fixes on the web. These were:

-Add AppData ownership for Everyone.

-Stop/Start BITS, Workstation, Wuauserv, Cryptsvc, and TrustedInstaller

-Delete data from SoftwareDistribution

-Add ownership for registry with subinacl

-Uninstall ESET Smart Security Premium

NOTHING from this list resolved this issue.

Can someone suggest a fix?

PLEASE, DON'T GIVE ME FIXES FROM THIS LIST AS MANY SITES HAVE THE SAME SOLUTION THAT IS NOT WORKING! DON'T SUGGEST ME A REINSTALL OF WINDOWS AS I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO GET SOME OF MY DATA AND PROGRAMS.

The version of Windows 10 is Pro 1803, Build 17134.48
