Windows Firewall cannot change some of your settings/error code ox80070424

I get this message "windows firewall cannot change some of your settings/error code ox80070424.

In a little more detail can help, like when is the message that appears and what OS you have (W7 starter Edition-home premium 32 bit 64 bit etc.). When the message started to appear? either you have installed a program or had a malware attack? (If you have or suspect that you may have been attacked by malicious software, then download, install, update and run a scan with Malwarebytesfree)

This can be interesting to read - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/968002 not quite the same message, but the same error code, i.e. at least the fixit FW.

    Hello

    What do you use for security?

    If you are using an Internet Security Suite, it will have its own firewall and disables the default Windows Firewall.

    And you should have only one firewall to avoid problems related to the operating system.

  • "Windows Firewall cannot change some of your settings. Error code 0 x 80070424 ' how to fix this?

    I get this error: "firewall Windows cannot change some of your settings. Error code 0 x 80070424"when I try to turn on the Windows Firewall (Windows 7).  I am also unable to start my computer in safe mode.  My computer has been infected by the virus 'Win 7 Security 2012', which is what caused this damage to my system.  The virus also seems to have removed all the system restore points before the infection!  I believe that I have the virus completely deleted.  I used Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, Spybot Search & Destroy, Ad-Aware, Kapersky Virus Removal Tool, antivirus Ati Avira (anti-virus program I was running when my computer has been infected by the virus) & Microsoft Security Essentials.  I ran the Scan SFC, a tool for emergency response Microsoft Support, Microsoft FixIt, ComboFix, & Tweaking.com Windows Repair all-in-One.  Repair Windows Tweaking.com seems to be turned Action Center back, where I now get a message that: "Windows Defender is turned off" & it does not seem to recognize MSE as my anti-virus program.  I need to know how to get Windows Firewall works again & get Action Center working properly again.  My computer has a partition with my Windows Recovery on it, but since I can't start in safe mode, I can not also start the restore partition to do a "repair" install, or even restore to factory settings!  Can anyone help?

    Also, when I use a search engine on internet, I get re-directed to a site that has absolutely NOTHING to do with the result of the research, and I click on... I am not that so that is proof that the virus is not COMPLETELY gone or not.

  • 0x8007042c error code: "Windows Firewall cannot change some of your settings.

    On this subject, I've seen the thread of Nov - Dec 2009. There was no alternative to then to reinstall Windows.  They mentioned the c:\windows\system32\drivers\mdsdrv.sys as file being missing.  Is it possible to get this driver and fix the problem?. Or is there a new fix for 2009?

    A lot has happened since your response on Dec 14.  I tried your last two suggestions without success.  Finally I got to the store (Best Buy). They spent more than a week to repair.  Apparently, they found a number of damaged system files. They finally got it fixed. I brought home, and it seems to work fine for less than a day, then the same problems.

    I got to Best Buy, and this time they completely erasing the hard disk and restored the computer to the factory State. Don't really know what caused the problem.

    Now, I tried to run "Windows Defender" & "Windows Firewall" both are running without any problem.

  • Firewall Windows cannot change some of your 0x8007042c settings error code.

    My Windows Firewall is turned off by itself and it won't turn. I receive the error message in the description. I was facing this problem since shortly after the installation of Windows 7. I tried the repair suggested here http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7security/thread/e5ee6823-98f8-4575-a254-00a038b17e34 .bat file but that did not work. I saw some errors when I ran the .bat file, but the window closed so quickly that I couldn't read. I'm at a total loss about how to correct this problem. I don't have a third-party firewall installed.

    It worked when all else has failed... If you guys tried to start the services as stated in amrita and couldn't ' try this... It works... chk this link... what narenxp said.

  • WINDOWS 7 CANNOT BE UPDATED AND PRODUCED 80070017 ERROR CODE

    I installed Windows 7 Ultimate in November 2009 using the MAPS software. All systems were running as normal. All updates up to 15 Dec (last updated) have been installed successfully. After December 15, 2009, updates cannot run Windows. It gives an error message that Windows 7 update has encountered an error with error code 80070017 unknowned.

    My Windows 7 could not be updated since then. Simply, I can't find a solution to this problem. I installed Kaspersky AV 2010 and that updates normally. What would be the next course of action? I have a Pinnacle AV/DV2 card installed during the process of clean install of Win 7 and Win 7 detected this card. I have not yet installed any software for the card.

    Could there be a confilct of firewalls between Win 7, Bit Defender and KAV 2010?

    OK, I found the problem to this rather peculiar error code. Windows 7 is not activated. After a month, no update is therefore allowed. Simply forgot to activate Windows 7. Microsoft Win 7 should have drawn my attention to the activation state. Its okay to have Bit Defender and Kaspersky Internet Security 2010 firewall all current Windows to run simultaneously.

    Thank you PA Bear.

    In addition, Microsoft should have maintained the network of Win XP or Vista icon. The network icon could at least tell if there are data streaming in and out of the PC. This new icon of network (called Internet Access) simply not to say another thing that the status of access to the Internet. Is there a way to change this icon to the previous?

    Thank you

  • My windows Defender cannot be turned on. The error code is 0x800106ba. I did a full scan with no viruses or errors.

    Windows Defender (vista) cannot be turned on.  Errow code is 0x800106ba.  When I found this, I did the full scan by using the Microsoft Security Enssentials.  There is no virus or error appears.  What could be wrong?  Thanks for any help.

    MS Security Essentials, which apparently you have installed your anti-virus/security protection, has its own component antimalware and disables Windows Defender when it is installed correctly. If your system works as expected. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!
