Windows Firewall

(1/6) > >>

Concrete Pillow:
i used the software and ticked
Reset Registry Permissions
Reset File Permissions
Register System Files
Repair WMI
Repair Windows Firewall
Remove Policies set by Infections
Set Windows Services to Default startup

Still the problem is not solved when i go to Windows Firewall and click on use recommended settings the window freezes for some time then without any error it just goes back to normal without switching on the windows firewall

 When i go to services and try to switch on Windows Firewall it does not work too...

I basically need Windows Firewall just so that i can use Internet Connection Sharing service( Apparently it doesnt work if the Windows Firewall Service is not started)...
All help will be Appreciated... Thank you !

Shane:
What version of Windows?

I have another user with the same problem on XP. Turns out his WMI is totally not working, and the firewall depends on the WMI. My repair couldnt get it working because Windows is unable to rebuild it. SO while I am helping him I want to see if you might be in the same boat.

If so I can find out whats going on and get it added to the repair program :-)
