This error number means "access denied". Generally speaking, to the registry keys involved in Windows Update.
The workaround runs through verifing the permissions for this keys. To do it, we have to launch the registry editor, typing in "regedit", from Start/Run and navigate to the key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate
After selecting this key, go to Edit/Permissions. and see if for Administrator and System users Full Control is checked. Besides, this issue is somewhat hard to solve due to it is possible that another keys are involved. A workaround it to use Regmon and see for what keys we get "Access Denied", but we also can restore the permission by default. This task can be done by going to command interpreter (start /run /cmd.exe) and type in this command, which runs in Windows 2000 and higher.
secedit /configure /cfg %windir%\repair\secsetup.inf /db secsetup.sdb /verbose
On Windows Vista based computer
secedit /configure /cfg %windir%\inf\defltbase.inf /db defltbase.sdb /verbose
