My firewall windows itself turns off

original title: firewall

Turns off my firewall windows itself. I keep having to check that its on again?

Hi c.kelly,

·         Which antivirus program is installed on the computer?

Method 1: Some antivirus programs have their own firewall and tend to turn off the Windows Firewall. Temporarily disable the antivirus program and check the issue.

Note: Please make sure that you enable the antivirus software after the test to keep your computer protected.

Method 2: You can run the Microsoft Safety Scanner to search for infection by the virus. Check out the following link to do the same thing.

Microsoft Safety Scanner - free online tool for PC health and safety

You can download and install Microsoft Security Essentials.

  • Firewall Windows 7 turns off intermittently, sometimes after WSUS updates

    Firewall Windows 7 turns off intermittently, sometimes after WSUS updates and other times when no updates have been pushed back.  He did 3 days now online this week.  Last week, a day, two weeks before anything.  It's a Dell latitude E6400, with the latest version of the Bios, chipset and device drivers.  Running Office 2010, Visio Pro 2010 and AutoCad 2012, as the main applications.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    Hi Michael,

    Thanks for the reply.

    You have installed on the computer registry cleaners?

    I suggest you to scan SFC (System File Checker) and check if it helps.

    SFC scan will search the system files corrupted on the computer and replace them.

    Use the System File Checker tool to troubleshoot missing or corrupted on Windows Vista or Windows 7 system files

  • My Satellite Pro M70 itself turns off in the middle of the secuence of startup

    My Satellite Pro M70 itself turns off in the middle of the secuence of startup

    After turning on if it passes the test post and enters the menu grub (Linux + Windows) or BIOS
    without problems, but most of the time after the start of the BONE found in the start - up, suddenly it powers off the power.

    The problem becomes bigger and bigger as punishment I can boot any operating system

    As seen on messages more soon as I cleaned the vents of CPU with a spray suddenly sure I wasn't a problem of overheatting.

    Someone has an idea of what can happen?

    Thank you

    Hmm, the laptop passes the MESSAGE correctly and it stops during the initialization of the operating system. Is this good?

    Well, in this case I would exclude the RAM to malfunction.

    I put t also think that it's an overheating problem because the laptop should work a little longer until it would be closed due to high temperature.

    What about the HARD drive malfunction? Are you sure that the HARD drive is ok?

    In my opinion, you should check the HDD and maybe try another.

  • Equium A100-549 itself turns off

    The laptop starts to turn itself turned off (mainly when playing games etc.) which seems to be due to overheating.

    There is a lot of dust in the vents, etc., so it's probably what is wrong.

    Can anyone provide guidance on how to disassemble the laptop so that the dust can be cleaned?

    Or spray a can of compressed air into the vents would be enough?

    > Or spraying a can of compressed air into the vents would be enough?
    Definitely Yes!

    Compressed air jet is a professional tool to clean the laptop cooling modules.
    You can buy these sprays of most computer resellers!

    I would not recommend you to disassemble the laptop to clean the fans. First it is very complicated and risky.
    During this disassembly procedure, some parts may be damaged.

    The jet of compressed air is safer and you can clean a lot faster

  • My HP Slate 7 itself turns off

    Hello world

    My HP Slate 7 itself turns off, even when it is plugged. It becomes a real problem because I use it as an alarm clock as well. This problem only starts in the last week or two, but has been making more and more frequent. Suggestions help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you!

    James

    This behavior does not seem normal.  7 Slate do you have?

    If it were my camera, I erase it with a Factory Reset and start over.  If the behavior appears immediately, then I would call HP for warranty repair.

  • "prepare to set up windows" with Windows update turns off!

    OK here is a mystery.
    I did a job with Windows 7 laptops, I have an installation script that installs the MS Word and MS Excel Viewer Viewer and change some settings grouppolicy.

    Windows Update is configured to "search the updaes but let me choose whether to download and install them.

    Now, occasionally, and not on all laptops can add, when I shut down Windows he decides he needs to do some "configuration" which lasts 30 minutes. Meanwhile, the HARD drive light is roughly 100% of the time.

    Now if Windows update turned off the coast of that Windows is trying to do.

    When I check that nothing has changed with the installation of the update.

    How do stop this behavior... any ideas would be greatly received.

  • Satellite A210-17 itself turns off!

    At my little laptop less than a year and he turns off itself. I can work away at the office or on the net and suddenly the screen is blank and the computer turns off - all the power buttons are not lit and when I press the button to try to turn it back on it goes to the recovery page of the system where I start windows in normal mode... Its happened 3 times today and its so frustrating. The battery is fully charged so I know this isn't the issue. Do you think that there is a hardware failure?

    Maybe its overheating? Have you checked the inlet for dust? You can blow off the dust with compressed air in a CAN.

  • Y580 with Win 8 Wireless keeps itself turning off during sleep - new edition.

    I have a newer Y580 with Windows 8.

    I've had this computer for months and the wireless worked perfectly well. I did no new changes and updates that I can remember recently have run.

    Whenever I close the lid on my laptop, the wireless connection will turn off. Windows displays the airplane mode is DISABLED and it shows no networks available in the section 'Wi - Fi '.

    Wifi works only after disablng of the wireless device, the reactivation of the device and then clicking on "Diagnose" from the popup menu of the device.

    Any advice would be appreciated.

    Thank you!

  • TouchSmart 520-1010 has itself turned off everything in video game

    My 2 week old Touchsmart 520-1010 a (Windows 7 64-bit) turns off each time after the video for a few seconds (8-12). Windows gadget pointed to the temperature of the GPU reaching up to 120 ° c in about 10 seconds after the beginning of the video (anything like video streaming online, or offline video MP4, etc.). GPU temperature was about 74-90 ° c If NOTto play the video.

    This Touchsmart PC is a refurb at HP and has no problem if no video is played. One day I worked up to 4 hours on the Touchsmart without any problem at all. So I think that the problem is with the GPU overheating.

    Is it a hardware problem can only be fixed by the technician or service center?

    See you soon

    Hello, so the problem was really a hardware problem with the video card, and as I suspect me, you would need for that unit controlled by the repair center. Good to know that your issue has been resolved, thank you for your comments and your message. Kind regards
