File History Error 80070005 on Windows 11/10

Before trying any of the given options, you should create a system restore point for your PC, just in case. Here is a list of fixes that might help you resolve File History error 80070005:

1. Reconnect the drive
2. Uninstall a problematic Windows Update
3. Take ownership of files and folders
4. Turn off File History and turn it on again
5. Reset File History.

Let’s check these fixes.

1] Reconnect the drive

Sometimes the problem is too small but we don’t pay attention to it. That might be the same in this case also. So, disconnect and then reconnect the File History drive where you want to back up your files and check if the backup process works.

You may also connect some other external drive just to find out if the first external drive is OK or the problem is with that first drive only.

2] Uninstall a problematic Windows Update

Microsoft releases cumulative updates from time to time. One of such updates is KB4601319 that was released in Feb, after which users start receiving File History error 80070005. Microsoft itself confirms that the security update KB4601319 suffers from a bug and that might be a reason you’re not able to backup files using File History.

So, uninstalling that update might help you fix this error. Thankfully, there are a couple of simple ways to uninstall Windows updates easily. For example, just follow this path:

Settings app > Update & Security > View update history > Uninstall updates

Now look for the KB4601319 update and uninstall it.

After the uninstallation, restart your PC, and that File History error 80070005 should be gone now.

If you face any issue after installing any Windows Update, you should check your Windows Update History, then uninstall it and then hide it till Microsoft releases a fixed update.

3] Take ownership of files and folders

If you do not have full rights to copy, modify, or delete some files and folders, then also the backup process using File History won’t happen and you might end up receiving this File History backup error. In that case, you first need to take full ownership of files and folders that you want to backup for your user account and then try again to begin the backup process.

This might take some time to find out which files and folders are there for which you need to take or change ownership, but it might help you a lot.

4] Turn off File History and turn it on again

These are the steps:

1. Connect the external drive that you want to use for File History backup
2. Type backup settings in the Search box of Windows 10
3. Press the Enter key
4. Click on More options under Back up using File History section
5. Scroll down the page
6. Click on the See advanced settings option to open the File History page
7. Use the Turn off button
8. Click on the Turn on button.

Now try to begin the backup process using File History.

5] Reset File History

If none of the options work, then try to reset File History that might help you solve this problem. Before resetting, make sure that the File History feature is turned off. After that, follow these steps:

Use Win+E hotkey to open File Explorer

Paste the following path in the address bar of File Explorer-

%UserProfile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\FileHistory

Press the Enter key

Select all files and folders present under the FileHistory folder

Delete all those files.

Once all those files and folders are deleted, File History will reset successfully. Now you might be able to begin and complete the File History backup.

Hope one of these options will solve File History error 80070005 for you.
