Run services.msc. Scroll down to Windows Firewall and start the service.

Try running this command in an elevated command prompt netsh winsock
reset Reboot and then try enabling the firewall. This recently worked for me in servicing a customers machine with the same problem. -- "Johan" wrote in message ...

Have you ever had a 3rd party firewall or security suite installed on this
computer? -- "GTS" x wrote in message ... Try running this command in an elevated command prompt netsh winsock reset Reboot and then try enabling the firewall.
