Original title: my firewall is blocked by group policy, how can we turn it on please don't declare the obvious ive tried that.

Hi Roy,

Please contact the Microsoft Community.

You can not turn on the Windows Firewall on the computer. It can be difficult when something that is important to you does not work as expected. It's pretty simple and we're here to help you solve the problem. We work as a team and get this sorted out.

Please answer these questions-

(1) what exactly happens when you enable the Windows Firewall?

(2) what is the antivirus installed on the computer?

(3) where are informed that security is controlled by group policy? What is the full error message in this respect?

(4) what is the version of Windows installed on the computer?

(5) did you do changes on the computer before the show?

I would like more information about the issue.

 

Assuming that you are running Windows 7 on the computer, I could suggest some common troubleshooting steps.

Method 1-

I wish that you are running the fixit-

Diagnose and automatically fix problems of Windows Firewall service

http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/windows_firewall_diagnostic/en-us

 

 

Method 2-

 

 

I recommend you to perform a clean boot.

Placing the computer in a boot minimum state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. You must perform the steps in the article-

How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

Note: You must follow the step 3 of the article to return the computer to a Normal startup after you perform all the troubleshooting steps.

 

Now try to turn on the firewall.

 

Let us know if you have other questions about Windows in the future. We will be happy to help you. We at Microsoft, strive for excellence and provide our customers with the best support.

Thank you.

  • Unable to turn off the computer, it will restart every time in Windows Vista.

    Original title: portable computer complete crash

    I am running Windows Vista Home Premium on HP Pavilion DV2208e.
    A week using Adobe Photoshop Lightroom, the screen went black and all the lights on the laptop has continued. I tried to stop the laptop by pressing the power button, but it did not work. The only way to stop the laptop was to unplug the power cord. The next morning, that I started it again, with a notice "Windows did not close properly, how you want to proceed.» I opted for "start Windows normally". It seems to work very well, with the expection that the date had re-fixed at the date where Vista was installed first of all a few years ago. Later, when I tried to stop the laptop by choosing from the menu start 'Shut down', the laptop shuts down normally, but then 2-3 seconds more later handed on himself. I tried several times and it's always the same, the way to stop it is by pressing the power button, then whenever it restarts it new note that Windows not stop correctly. Also the black screen crash turned up almost every two days.

    I tried reinstalling antivirus and did a full scan. Also used ccleaner and décliqués "Automatically restart" in the advanced system settings. But nothing seems to have worked so far.

  • Unable to turn off the Magnifier in Win7

    I'm unable to turn off the Magnifier in Win7 and asked help available to all sources known to me. I was told to use the ease of access and uncheck Mgnifier.

    Because it did not work.
    Then I tried to use settings in the mouse - did not work.  And there are other approaches - none worked!
    I guess the Magnifier is useful for some, but for me, it's a major nuisance and I would definitely find an approach that would disable it permanently...

  • Lights up turn of the computer - monitor remains blank

    • About 5 days ago, I was using my computer as usual. I have a game, was talking to some people and play music, everything works fine. Out of nowhere, my screen locked up, I thought he was just a typical gel, so I waited a minute or two while trying things like the Ctrl alt del and alt + tab, none of these things, do nothing at all. To speed up the process, I turned off the computer manually and turned it back. After back on the screen remains empty. When the device is turned on and that everything is working normally, the light on the power button on the monitor to blue. When the computer is not turned on but the monitor is, or when the computer is in "standby", the power button goes orange. After turning on the actual computer monitor screen remained pure black, and that the switch remained orange. The computer itself seems to turn on normally, the green light in the back turns on and remains solid, the two fans inside the Tower lights up and there is the noise of typical general snoring from the computer. Since then, I tried to unplug drain all the power and turn it back on, I reinstalled the RAM, I checked the card plugged into the VGA port has been completely connected (it was a problem in the past after sending in my computer when the VGA port had been fried. The symptoms at the time were essentially the same ones they are now corrected again when an operator HP had me check if this card was plugegd, it was not completely, I pushed it and it worked fine.) Anyway, this time I tried this card verification. I pushed a little more to check if that was the problem, it doesn't change anything. I tried another monitor (with a different cable), that doesn't change anything. My warranty on the computer turns off, so my only way to contact HP for help is with the online chat, and this conversation has done me any good. They had me try all the things I had already tried and then just told to take it into a store.

    1. which version of the windows operating system is installed in the computer?

    2. have you made any changes to the computer?

    Method 1:

    If you use windows vista and windows 7, I suggest you perform the clean boot and check.

    Place the computer in a clean boot state, then check if it helps. You can start Windows by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    It could be that your video settings have been set to a resolution that your monitor does not support.

  • Once I turned on the computer I got the following message: Windows could not start because the following file is missing or damaged. System32\Drivers\Ntfs.sys

    I just download Microsoft Office 2010 Professional and then turns off the computer with XP operating system. Once I turned on the computer I got the following message:

    Windows could not start because the following file is missing or damaged;

    System32\Drivers\Ntfs.sys

    You can try to repair this file by starting Windows Setup using the original Setup CD

    Select 'r' in the first screen to start repair.

    Then, I started the computer with the Original installation CD and press 'r' by following the instructions. Then, I received this message:

    1: C:\WINDOWS

    Which Windows installation you want to connect?

    (to cancel, press enter)

    What do I put here?

    You must first start on doing something so USB drive a bootable Hiren.

    Here's how:

    I'll recommend you use Hiren boot CD (it will go also to a flash/USB stick/USB).

    It's good for you, because there a lot of tools more on that on the Recovery Console CD of XP, doesn't your administrator passwords and you will not have to futz round in your BIOS, if any afflicted system has SATA drives - Hiren can deal with this.

    You will have a bunch of great tools that you have in XP... Recovery Console an editor of the register, adjustable password and an office that resembles Windows XP so you will feel comfortable flexibility.

    You can easily copy your personal data (documents, pictures, music) to an external drive.

    A system of work, start by downloading the latest version on Hiren Boot CD from here (it is a substantial download but worth it):
    http://www.hirensbootcd.org/download/    (look to the bottom of the page).

    Unzip the Hiren to a folder where you can find it.  There's a Hiren. BootCD.15.x.iso that you have to then.

    Hiren was instructed to make a bootable USB drive that you can use, but it takes you first burn the .iso to a CD image file and a few other measures, so I suggest another way and here's how:

    Download RUFUS 1.3.2 or whatever the latest version is here (read a few things on the page so you can learn more on this subject):

    http://Rufus.AKEO.IE/

    I will warn to be careful that don't accidentally format you a hard disk - don't forget your USB key is in and know what the drive letter!  This part makes me still a little nervous, so be careful.

    Launch of RUFUS and all default values should be fine for the device, choose letter of your USB drive, quick tag format FAT32, it if you want and in the Format options box, click on the little icon that looks like a CD and a window will open.  Navigate through this dialogue to point to the folder that contains the Hiren. BootCD.15.x.iso that you have unpacked above and the box should change to say the image ISO (RUFUS includes the Hiren ISO file).

    Double check you have the right device selected in the top (NOT you HDD) click Start, acknowledge receipt of the warning and let it finish (it will take a little time) it copies the files.   Hiren ISO is also a good size.

    When RUFUS is finished, it will say "DONE" at the bottom.

    Put the USB in the afflicted machine and reset/reboot and regardless of the button you press to get a boot menu where you can select the USB drive as first boot device (it's F11 for me).  If you do not see a start menu choice, you will need to set your BIOS to boot from USB first instead of the HARD disk.

    When the Hiren menu displays, choose the XP Mode of Mini and it will start loading (slowly from a USB key) and finally, you should see a windowsy looking for office.  You should recognize the part and feel uncomfortable, but it is not your office - the office of the Hiren!

    Remember: you do not start on your hard drive, - you started in the Office of the Hiren.

    A way to check the drive for errors is to open my computer and right-click on your afflicted player and choose Properties, tools, error, check checking now... put a check mark in the boxes and then start.

    Sometimes that works, then you can also click on start, run and in the type box:

    cmd

    Click OK to open a command prompt window and enter the following command (assuming that XP is installed on your C drive)

    CHKDSK c: /r

    This disk check can last a long time (perhaps several to several hours) depending on the size of the volume, the amount of data on the volume and what the disk check finds to do.  You may need to run more than once.
