Update Error Code 80070020 Windows 7

The update error that you are getting is reasonably common among users. I do not think there is reason to panic. The error code that you are getting says that the possible reason behind this error. This error can occur when some program that shares some files with your antivirus is not allowing it to update these files.

To solve this problem, what you can try is to reboot your system in the safe mode. To do this, turn off the computer. When you power on, continuously press F8. This will open the boot options. Click no safe mode with networking. This will start your system in the safe mode and allow you to access the internet. Try to update the computer now in safe mode. This should solve your problem.
