I've had this problem since 2012.4.25. When i try to run windows update it says "Windows could not search for updates. Error code 8007007E".
I'm using Windows 7 64 bit.


I've already tried fixing the problem from control panel with "fix problems with windows update"
I've also tried Microsoft Fix It program.


I did SFC /SCANNOW procedure and followed instructions in this link <a href="http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833" target="_blank">http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833</a> and there i found in the sfc details that there were some problems with sppc.dll
file. In the file there was often similar texts like below. 

Cannot repair member file [l:16{8}]"sppc.dll" of Microsoft-Windows-Security-SPP-Client, Version = 6.1.7601.17514, pA = PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE_AMD64 (9), Culture neutral, VersionScope = 1 nonSxS, PublicKeyToken = {l:8 b:31bf3856ad364e35}, Type neutral, TypeName
neutral, PublicKey neutral in the store, file is missing
Could not reproject corrupted file [ml:520{260},l:46{23}]"??C:WindowsSystem32"[l:16{8}]"sppc.dll"; source file in store is also corrupted


When i did as the link above instructed and typed "takeown /f C:WindowsSystem32sppc.dll" in the command prompt it said "ERROR: the system cannot find the file specified".
