  • Can not enter the Windows Firewall settings

    Hello

    Can someone tell me what my problem is? When I try to enter my WF in the Panel, he won t let me do that. A message just because of an unidentified problem, windows cannot display only my windows firewall settings.

    Because of the informative posting, I would say you should ask Microsoft why you aren't able to open the firewall settings.

    If you're ready for a serious debate please let us know which mode of laptop you have, which OS is preinstalled it and which antivir application you use.

  • I can not start the Windows Firewall service in Windows XP SP3

    I discovered this problem when I installed a new Brother MFC-7860 DW in my network. Although the computer can 'see' the machine, I can't print to it. The error coming from the troubleshooter has informed me that the firewall might be the problem. Now I find that I couldn't open the firewall. I tried the solutions in previous discussions. It seems that Windows Firewall is not yet installed on my machine even if the icons are in the control panel. When I tried MS Fixit for the firewall, it gave me an error and sent me to a web page that does not seem to address the situation. Help, please.

    It is unlikely that all damages that are left behind.

    Restore the system to factory settings.  Update all drivers hardware devices with the appropriate constructors.  Update the operating system completely patched.  Install applications of your backups of installation media and series/product numbers keys.  Updated all of the latest patches.  Restore all your personal data.  Enjoy your own and probably faster running machine.

    I suggest you also protect it with a compbination of eSet NOD32 AntiVirus and MalwareBytes (paid version) to ~ 85USD for the first two years and ~ $60 every two years after.  One of the best combination of performance and protection, I found.
