How do I fix error code (0x800706f4)

Hi ke_ zaii,

There may be some problem with the driver or DHCP service in the device.

Try to check if the driver is faulty. And reset the parts that may be network-related, such as routers, network profiles, as much as possible.

• In the search box on the taskbar, type device manager, then select Device Manager from the menu. In Device Manager, double-click and check the device for any error messages.

In addition, is your device running Windows 11 24H2? Is the upstream network device a VIVO brand device?

Hi ke_ zaii,

Welcome to Microsoft Community.

We understand the frustration of experiencing input/output response failures and disappearing application icons on your device.

These non-significantly related issues may be indicative of deep-rooted corruption, such as user profile failures, data failures on the disk.

In the case of Windows Update issues, they can be affected by a variety of factors such as cached data, component failures, and more.

If possible, would you mind sharing more information about this issue with us?

Do relatively clean environments (for example, Safe Mode, new user profiles) exhibit a similar inability to properly respond to input/output?

In some cases, some community members may perform an In-place Upgrade to patch some issues that may be related to system components.

• In-place Upgrade Let’s try performing an in-place install or in-place upgrade which will refresh your Windows files and operating system without removing files or applications. That being said, we always recommend that if you have important data, you should back it up before making large system changes. If you want to back up your data first, please do so. Once you are done backing up, you can follow the steps in the following guides:  How to run In-place upgrade in Windows 11 - Microsoft Community****

Good Day,
I have done the steps but another problem arised. It still says that I am not connected even though I am connected through ethernet cable.

Hi ke_ zaii,

Thank you for getting back to us.

It seems that network issues are indirectly affecting the Windows Update service.

Network issues can be complex.

Before further troubleshooting, please allow us to advise you about adjusting the metered connections and cleaning up old network data, checking hotspots/USB shared networks for testing.

Metered connections may affect the behavior of Windows Update.

Clearing the old network cache and changing to a hotspot/USB shared network is a relatively simple way to switch the overall network environment of a device. It can often be used to analyze whether the problem is specific to a particular network environment itself.
