I get the error code 5 when I try to start the Windows Firewall

Original title: Windows 7 x 64 firewall won't start, tried everything

Hi, ive tried enough what was described in the first 10 pages google search, but I cannot get rid of the known problem of firewalls

For me, this is the error code 5.

As soon as I try to start it manually, it says cannot be started.... error code 5.
I did a system win7 files repair, I did a reset of network, I tried about 30 different commands to display information about the firewall service, ive checked the firewall authority loading driver, I gave permission to complete firewall of all registry directories described, ive created entirely new firewall rules 1:1 to the default ones, ive checked other 'ordinary' process runs in the firewall service and and and.

NOTHING helped me.

Others facing this problem actually get another error for the first code after a few solutions, they also face the "error code 5.
Oh yes, I also tried the microsoft firewall tool.
He says theres a problem with the firewall, but can not solve.

I never had no infection or OneCare / 3rd Personal Firewall running.

And because I can't deal with that firewall, I also can not use transferred ports - which is terrible bad since im was the owner of a local game server.
But that happened in ive faced the problem as it was half a year ago. And I can't be solved without format my drive.

Because you guys are part of Microsoft personnel - and has got the possibility to contact the developers - why cant you just create a firewall package with latest updates that crushes real files/settings in order to solve problems that are found by your own tool?

Its a shame, I hope that you can offer me new solution :(

-You are using a third-party firewall software?
At no time.

Was there the recent changes on your computer before the show?
No, not at the time the problem occurred, also not 1-2 weeks before.

Method 1:
Returns the error Code 5, as I indicated in my problem

Method 2:
Tried 2 - 3 times yesterday, , everything including the Microsoft Tool to automatically fix problems.

Method 3:
I've done a complete check-up and recover system, no modified files files have been found.

Also, the batch file to start/restar services:
SC config start = auto MpsSvc - success
SC config start = auto KeyIso - success
BFE sc config = auto start - success
SC config start = auto FwcAgent - fail ' [SC] OpenService error 1060 - service is not installed.

net stop MpsSvc - Service not started
net start MpsSvc - cannot be started - error Code 5

the rest - success, but still, the firewall service does not.

Seems that the firewall service or part of it gots uninstalled something?
Perhaps in the case of update?

Also I can't find no "FwcAgent" file in my system drive while showing the system hidden files and folders.

I guess that's NORMAL given that verification of files windows did not find any changes.
Theres no light at the end? Really?

Moreover, the hotline also could not help (and you get his terrible btw, managed a total noob). The suggestions here are much "deeper", still nothing worked again.

EDIT:
Looking around the means how to re - install the firewall component windows I found another unofficial repair tool.

It fits quite all associated in any way with the security settings and firewall components, as it recreates all the rules and rights of dirs and registry keys.

And what should I write - it WORKED.
Let me share with you: http://www.tweaking.com/index.php?/content/page/repair_windows_firewall.html

AND YES:
Someone should stick this tool in front of microsoft developers, but the hard way.
How is it, some hobby programmers can create these simple tools that beat anything from microsoft developers?

I hope that my solution works for the many thousand other ppl that I found on the net - who could not solve their problem (even) with the firewall in vista/windows7.

Please mark this topic as "BOLD" and possible GREEN :-)
Thanks again for your help, John Rubdy!
