Whenever asking about an error message you need to post the complete and
exact text of the message. Please try again and post the complete and
exact text of the error message and exactly what you are doing when you
see the message. (What does "can not log in" mean?)

Is that error for Windows Updates or Defender Updates failed or what your
message all about?

Did you tried System Restore to an earlier date before what happened?
click Start >> All programs >> Accessories >> System Tools >>
System Restore and pick up a Restore point to restore your system.

Can we have the exact wording/verbatim of the error please!
Open a Notepad, customize or minimize to the taskbar as you will need it
later for this step to copy the error message on it.
Open a run command and type in:
eventvwr.msc click [OK] you will get the Event viewer control Panel.
click on each of these:
Application
System
Security
Look in the right Pane/window for error message with red (X) or Yellow
exclamation mark /!\ , double click each one to get more info about the
causer.
On the Event error properties message you will see:
Up Arrow
Down arrow
Two pages
Click on the two pages to copy the error message then bring up the Notepad
you opened earlier and right click on the first line and select Paste from
the list, this will paste the error message on a Notepad.
Please don't duplicate the error message one of each kind will be sufficient.

Your solution is in this Microsoft Knowledge Base article:

""Error Code: 0x80070002" error message cites license-checking issue
after upgrade on Dell computer"
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=310794

The similar though not exact error code amounts to the same thing.

ok so I did try to follow the kb way- but those files were not in there. the

occured.
