Windows 10: Error 5 Access Denied when attempting to restart my Base filtering eng

The title says it all. When attempting to restart my Base filtering engine service I get an error 5 access denied.
Any help would be most appreciated
a bit more information: it then says the following programs will be restarted:
Windows Defender Network Inspection Service
Windows Defender Network Inspection System Driver
Internet Connection Sharing (ICS)
IPsec Policy Agent
Windows Firewall
IKE and AuthIP IPsec Keying Modules

Once I click okay, the Error 5 message pops up

:)

 

Windows 10 Search service not started Error 5: Access is denied

In that case, let's focus on the Error 5: Access denied error message that you received. Check out the link for
Error message when attempting to start the Windows Event Log Service: "Access denied" from

Solution Center for Access Denied Error Messages.

Update us with the results.
