You normally get windows update error 80072ee6 when you download updates from Windows Server Updates on Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008. This error is pretty common among users and should be solvable.

This error occurs when the URL address is wrong or invalid in the group policy settings.   So, it is obvious that to remove this error, you need to check if the URL in the group policy settings is correct. Generally, the problem is with the syntax of the URL that is to say that maybe it does not start with http:// or https://. These are small problems but it is the small problems that trouble the most. Once you correct the URL, you need to restart your computer. After restarting the computer, start the update process and it should complete without throwing any more errors.
