  1. Windows Update Standalone Installer Error 80070005 Access Denied: Why Is This Happening?


    I'm trying to manually install an important update that's missing from my machine. Specifically it's update KB2999226 for 64 bit Windows 10. I think it's called the Universal C++ Runtime utility. I'm attempting to install my JAWS 2021 screenreader, and the installation failed and the error code on the failure notification indicates that this particular update is not installed. How do I fix the standalone update installer so I can manually install updates? When automatic updates are switched on, it makes my computer freeze! Here's a screenshot for ya.

  2. Windows 10 Access is Denied Error 80070005

    I have a user getting the error code: 80070005 when attempting to log into the Outlook and Teams applications. Additional error information:

    "Something went wrong

    We couldn't sign you in,. If this error persists, contact your system administrator and provide the error code 80070005.

    Additional problem information

    Error code: 80070005

    Correlation ID

    Timestamp

    More information: https://www.microsoft.com/wamerrors

    Server message: Access is denied. Access is denied. "

    They have completed all Windows updates with no errors, and have rebooted many times but still getting the same error.

    The usual sfc/ scannow and DISM image repair tools did not resolve the issue. The SFC scan did state that it found an error but was able to resolve the problem. I am stumped on what to try next, so I was looking for any ideas from here. Thank you.

  3. Cannot backup Outlook.pst - API call error, Access is denied. 80070005

    Who is the owner of the outlook.pst file? What are the file permissions?
    I ask because your backup error says that access is denied: Code:
    If the "user" who is running the backup does not have permissions to read the outlook.pst file, then the backup will fail.

    If that's the case, find out who is running the backup. Is that YOU? Or an admin account.
    Add the appropriate permissions to the outlook.pst file.

    I've had lots of problems with Windows 10 regarding permissions. Every new computer will not allow Firefox to save downloads on the desktop ... until I open up permissions on the Desktop folder.

    Oddly enough, Firefox would download to the Downloads folder with no problems. It was all about permissions.

    That happened on my work computer. It happened on my new home desktop last year (Win 10 Anniversary). And it happened again last week when I got the Win 10 FCU update.

    The default permissions on a fresh Win 10 install are just fine in many cases, but not so in other cases.
