Shane,

Yes that is the model the x240.  I ran all of the check for the superfish problem and came up clean - no problem!

So what is next?  I would have run your tweaking program early on except that the x240 has a built in "emergency" storage battery.  How does one performa clean start?

Hello Shane,  It has been a while since you solved my Firewall problem.  Since that time I have purchased a "New" Lenovo X240 laptop with Windows 8.1 loaded on it, an Intel i5 chip, 500 GB hard drive and added 8 GB RAM.  All has been relatively well with the machine.  I recently have been receiving a Blue Screen Sad Face failure that in the fine print says DRIVER POWER STATE FAILURE.  Then it says it is creating a dump file and then restarts the computer.  After that I do not have any problems until the next time the machine goes into sleep or hibernation mode.  Then it starts ups up just fine and runs for a while then with no notice gives me the sad faced blue screen.

I looked on line and found some Microsoft references to check my hardware drivers to be sure they are up to date.  I did that in the Device Manager and all drivers report that I have the latest and greatest drivers.

Any Ideas?

I think I was supposed to post all of these for Shane after he repaired my firewall:

[Shane] OK so i went through the two files and compared them on my test stations.

These reg keys are not in my reg file and are not any of my systems. I am going to see if my firewall breaks when i add these registry keys. And if so I will have my repair remove them  (See below - "Whole set of keys from reg file".)

[Shane]
Yep! I applied those registry keys and my firewall is broken. I will remove 1 key at a time and see which one gets it working and get an update of the Windows repair out :-D

[Shane]
OK I deleted the first one and my firewall started right up!

This is the key that broke your firewall. The other keys don't seem to be hurting the firewall but since they are not on a normal system I might remove them as well.

I removed them all!  If I need them the system will tell me or add them back in.

Wow, my computer is running faster than I can ever remember!

The firewall is responding as advertised and is catching up with all my programs quickly and appropriately.

GREAT JOB, SHANE!!! :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:

I have tried to reply three times before this with out the result of the reply going through.  Do not know why.

I did what you said to do with the permissions and traced all of the "depends" on items.  I have a bunch of screen shots that I have loaded too many times to do it again.

I will load a couple here now if you want to see specific ones let me know.

Still no change in the fire wall performance.

No change.

Went through every sub folder in "shared access" to be sure it was removed.

Ok,  Here are some screenshots of what I found.  I could access everything under sharedaccess.  Some had permissions that seemed funky - screen shots.

Let me know what you think

Back again finally.

Nothing has worked yet.  The latest version of tweaking did not cure the problem.

I tried the Microsoft troubleshooter.  It seems to find something but then cannot communicate it with the Microsoft servers.

Any more ideas?

Forgot to mention the authorization by phone worked like a charm!

I think the fan was going because so many downloads- upgrades were coming through as I was working.

I use Microsoft Security Essentials

The Links between Outlook and IE are back working after the auto upgrade to IE 11.

Still no Firewall.

Yes, all of the essentials and the optionals I chose.  took a bit but they downloaded and installed.

Today I got the pop up shown in the screen shot below.  The code I used was the one on the bottom of the computer.

and the firewall still does not start.  Same exact error code it was presenting before.

And also my chasis fan is running alot more than before, dumping a lot of heat.

So that was fun - it took all night to upgrade.

However, the firewall still does not start, the computer seams to run slower, and the links in emails now don't work,  all of this is backed by screen shots

Hello again,  I have been out of town and out of touch.

I am back again to get this issue solved, especially with the new revelation of the SSL issue with websites.

Here is screen shot of WMI check.  It looks like the screen shot you provided.

Most of what is in the background came that way with the computer.  I have weeded it out using glary utilities.  I'll keep working it.  But I am sure that is not what is blocking the firewall.

Ok,  the wmi program opened - one of the screen shots below shows result - did not know how what to do to test it.

I did run sfc /scannow -  after that and other "fixes" the firewall started then when I checked it again it was stooped and reporting the same error you have seen.

Your questions reminded me of the logs from the tweaking.com windows repair program.  So I attached what I thought would be helpful let me know what you may need other than these.

No error.  See screen shot.

 Also no error when I started COM+ service from service application. See screen shot.

And still no go on the firewall - see screen shot.

I did not see anything call "bit services" - I take it that is the COM+ service.

Ok I just ran the ROOTKIT tool BETA version - no infections found!
And yes I ran all of the repairs listed.

Computer seems to be running a little slower now but that could be my imagination.

General Computer Support / Windows Firewall won't Start - SOLVED!!!
« on: March 16, 2014, 06:07:12 pm »
I have windows 7 professional service pack 1, 32 bit.  Running on a Toshiba Protégé 830 laptop.
I have Microsoft security Essentials and have been using Windows Firewall since the original purchase of the machine.

After an update sent by Microsoft in the fall of last year which I had some trouble getting to load without failures.  The msiexec.exe file was constantly running which caused the fan on the cpu to run constantly.  If the program was left "unsuspended" in resource monitor a blue screen crash would occur if I used malwarebytes to scan it.  That is issue cleared it self about two weeks ago and I have not had that as a problem since.  (I have no Idea what caused it to start being a problem or end being one, in any case it no longer happens.) 

Malwarebytes did not find any viruses.  MS Security Essentials did not find viruses.

However during the troubleshooting I noticed that the Windows firewall was not running and would not start.  In services I get the following message "Windows could not start the Windows Firewall on Local Computer.  For more information, review the System Event Log.  If this is a non-Microsoft service contact the service vendor and refer to the service-specific error code -2144206818."   The system Event Log has the firewall listed as 7024 and reports"The Windows Firewall service terminated with service-specific error %%-2144206818."

I used the tweaking.com program today in an attempt to fix this error.  It did not work.  The windows Firewall Authorization Driver - reports that it is started and working.  The base Filtering Engine had been stopped but is not started and working as expected - restarting each time the computer is restarted.   

I am at a loss on what to do next?  Ideas?
