Security-SPP Event 16385 Error 0x80070005

Last Updated: 8/14/15

My solution:

Give network service account full NTFS permissions to:
C:\Windows\System32\Tasks\Microsoft\Windows\SoftwareProtectionPlatform

Then run these commands:
net stop sppsvc
net start sppsvc

If that does not work, try the task delete and XML import process listed in the Microsoft forum link below.
