My installation of MikTeX 2.9 broke during an update. I am using a Windows 7 Enterprise.

MikTeX Update Wizard (Admin)
The operation could not be completed for the following reason:
The operation could not be completed because the following file failed verification:
C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Temp\mik5AC8.tmp

It does not matter whether I am a user with a low privilege or the local Administrator. Nor does it matter which repository I use.
