Check if "System Writer" is operating by running "vssadmin list writers" from CMD prompt.

If not type the following commands:

CD c:\windows\system32
Takeown /f %windir%\winsxs\filemaps\* /a
icacls %windir%\winsxs\filemaps\*.* /grant "NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:(RX)"
icacls %windir%\winsxs\filemaps\*.* /grant "NT Service\trustedinstaller:(F)"
icacls %windir%\winsxs\filemaps\*.* /grant "BUILTIN\Users:(RX)"

This error occurs at or shorly after the service "TrustedInstaller" on a German version of Windows Vista x64 was gone. After the service was gone the system was unable to install/remove any updates (error 0x80070424). This error code means also that a needed service is gone... Trying to start the service using "net start trustedinstaller" failed as expected with 1060.

As per T734021, the Component Object Model (COM) applications must be able to access the COM+ catalog files that are stored in the COM catalog folder. If the default access control list is changed on the COM catalog folder within the Windows folder, the Shadow Copy System Writer may not work properly. See the article on how to modify the access control list on the registration folder.
