See if there's any more information (or another error code) on your problem in your Windows Update.log. The Update.log entries are in chronological order and your most recent experience will be at the bottom of the list.

C:\Windows\Windows Update.log

Go to C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\Catroot2 and delete or move or rename the "Catroot2" folder ( Windows will automatically recreate a new Catroot2 folder).

Once you've removed the corrupted Catroot2 folder, return to Windows Update and try the download again. This has worked successfully for many people (including me) and I'm unaware of any problems with deleting Catroot2 (as I said, you'll get a brand new one).

Several sources treat error 0x800C0005 as if it were 0x800A138F (a more general and common error code). If that's true, then see below. Re-synchronizing my date/time (step 5) worked for me a while back.
