I have 19 critical updates that cannot be processed and I get the error code 800706F7. I have tried the troubleshooter and Fix-it and neither resolved the problem. In addition, I also get from the Windows Activation Tech message that I may not be running Genuine Windows. The activation process has never completed. Also, I have IE 11 installed but cannot access it either. I just receive a fast flash on the page. I don't know if these problems are all related, or not. I have Windows 7 Home premium 64 bit purchased on 10/2011 with everything pre-installed. I have used Mozilla firefox and Avast Internet Security from the beginning. I have Malwarebytes Anti-Malware installed which recently found malware and removed it. I also have CCleaner installed and recently ran it hoping it would help with these problems. Java version 8, update 25 and Adobe Flash Player 15 are also installed. I hope someone can help as I find this very frustrating and am also concerned that I am not receiving the critical updates. Thank you.

The update you highlight has caused a lot of users problems so it is no surprise that it helped you with your problem. However the appearance of problems displaying error code 800706F7 predates the December updates so removing KB3004394 is not going to solve all problems where this error code is displayed. It may highlight a problem with Windows Root Certificates on the affected computer.
Yep, and that is why I qualified my post with "resolved this for me".

In my case it's a new thing. I did the clean install of OS on a brand new laptop just about an hour before this problem appeared. An I've done it twice with same results. So in my opinion, it's not a specific computer issue but Microsoft update issue.

When did your problem start?
Try running Fixit 20135 in this link:
