The error code 0x800706be is a Windows error code that is shown whenever a system file is having an issue. This error can be shown by other windows compatible software and driver vendors as well. This is a general error that points to a misconfigured or corrupt system file.

There are several methods you can try to fix this issue:

Make sure Windows Update and Background Intelligent Transfer services are available and running: Click Start, type services.msc in the Start Search text area, and then click services.msc in the programs list. Double-click Background Intelligent Transfer Service. If the Startup status lists Stopped, click Start and then click OK. If the status is Running, right-click then select Restart.
