I am running an Acer Power M8

Since some time I receive the error code 80070005 (unknown error) with the message, that the system can not search for updates. This is valid also for all other updates for microsoft programs.

This error seems to be related to a lack of rights though I am the only user on my system and I am administrator.

Help is highly appreciated.
