I have the same problem with error 'Parameter incorrect (0x80070057)
 
This was found in previous post and apparently it workrd:

Try renaming the SoftwareDistribution folder

Click Start, Choose Run.
In the Run box, type services.msc.
Click OK.
Right-click the Automatic Updates service.
Click Stop.
Stopping the service will take a moment.

Rename the "SoftwareDistribution" folder: a. Click Start, click Run, type
%systemroot%, and then click OK.
b. Right-click the SoftwareDistribution folder, and then click Rename.
c. Type SoftwareDistribution.old, and then press ENTER to rename this folder.

Click Start. Choose Run.
In the Run box, type services.msc.
Click OK.
Right-click the Automatic Updates service.
Click Start.
Starting the service will take a moment.

You will lose you history but not important. Try WU again.

Bob, I am very new with Vista and when I click start I have no run to use.
How do I get 'RUN' to show?

I found 'RUN' it was in the Accesseries. Now it says I am denied access, the
rename is rejected.
