Security SSP Repetition Error – Failed to Schedule Software Protection Service (Error Code: 0x80070005)

Question

After resetting my system (keeping files), I’ve noticed frequent Security SSP errors appearing in Event Viewer. Other errors, such as DCOM and Service Control Manager, occur but are not as persistent as SSP errors. Additionally, whenever I attempt Windows updates, they fail during restart and revert the changes.

Steps I’ve Already Tried:

Reset Access Permissions – Used icacls on both drives to restore default access settings and resolve any access-denied issues.

System File Checks – Ran sfc /scannow, DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth, and chkdsk to check for corrupted files, but they did not fix the issue.

Software Protection Service Fixes – Restarted Software Protection Service (sppsvc) and verified that NETWORK SERVICE has Read & Execute permissions.

Windows Update Troubleshooting – Despite these steps, the SSP error persists and prevents successful updates.

I’d appreciate guidance on what might be causing this issue and any additional solutions I can try. Is there anything else I need to check or configure to resolve the error?
