    Hi,

    I'm using Windows Insider Builds on my computer which is joined to domain and probably after installing build 14332, Windows Update and downloading apps from Windows Store stopped working. In C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\ReportingEvents.log I have these logs:

    I tried almost every possible solution which can be found, but nothing helps.

    The I tried to go to previous build 14328 but problem still remained. The I manually upgrade by ISO back to 14332 and no I have build 14390, but still the same problem.

    When I check TCP connections with TCPView I can see that process svchost in which Windows Update is running still opening and closing new and new connections to some Windows Update server IP address.

    Another point is that I can't set option to update also other Microsoft products in Windows Update settings. I can check it, but it won't save.

    Can someone help me?

    I also have this problem: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows8_1-windows_store/error-code-0x80072efd-in-windows-81-store/80318c03-6316-4096-b651-6a29c85a094d?auth=1 - and I can solve it by solution which is mentioned there, so could this be some registry problem too?

    Hi,

    I have already tried suggested solutions from that tread but with no success.

    I finally had to reinstall Windows because I wasn't even able to upgrade from build 14390 to 14393.
