No network sharing after Windows Repair (AIO)

Marcoevich:
Hello sir!

I have recovered a PC from a nasty virus infection. Since the virus the windows firewall wouldn't start (specific service error 5).

I read on the internet that this was due to registry access rights, and someone recommended your program to fix it.

So I tried and hell yeah, windows firewall is up and running again!

There's only one thing: it is now impossible for me to enable file&printersharing and networkdetection. The pc and the printer is now completely unvisible from other pc's on the network.

I have verified that all required services are running. So, what could have caused this? Is there anything I can do to enable file&printersharing again?

Thank you very much in advance!

Greetings,
Marcoevich

Hmm, why would I have to look there? File sharing always worked correctly, and now those features would suddenly be removed? That's a rather agressive approach if you ask me..

This. This is what I am trying to do, but everytime I save those changes, return, and then come back at this the changes are undone. The changes I make here don't save..

Shane:
If you turn the windows firewall off do they start working?

I am sorry I read it wrong  :shy:

Have you looked so Windows Firewall isn't blocking File and Printer Sharing?
