I can no longer run windows update from my regular user account. It used to run fine, although I cannot remember exactly when it stopped working from my regular user account. I get the &quotcould not search for new updates - code 80080005&quot error. From the

administrator account, windows update runs fine. I tried the fixit tool and the problem remains. Could this be some type of permissions error? I recently had some significant problem with uninstalling Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Express (some type of CLR

routine kept trying to run and it took 6 hours to uninstall) and I also had to uninstall the IE 10 beta because of problems it caused in the WinAmp browser window. I am running Windows 7 64 bit.
