Windows 10: 0x80072F8F Not able to activate windows or update

I just upgraded from windows 6.1 to windows 10.WiFi drivers weren't working, I had to fix it using the help of the internet. after fixing everything I tried to activate my copy of windows 10 home.0x80072F8FI tried all of the fixes on the internet like, resetting the microsoft store, or dns setting/ proxy but nothing worked.I am not able to update as well, I decided to just update as it might just be an issue microsoft fixed.It doesn't work either, I did everything from sfc /scannow to Full system scan in my computer.Basically, windows can't contact windows servers for some reason.

Cannot install updates or Store apps, error code 0x80072F8F

All this looks alright, except the SFC /SCANNOW command returned a note about there being some corrupt files - I have the log saved if (part of?) it would be useful?

 

Cannot install updates or Store apps, error code 0x80072F8F

Puzzling. Tends to suggest permissions errors or other corruption.

As a matter of routine, please run these basic checks.
a. Check your disk e.g.
HD Tune (free) Health and Error scan tabs (e.g. from Softpedia).
b. If ok, run
chkdsk c: /scan
from an admin command or Powershell prompt
c. if ok, run
SFC /SCANNOW
similarly
