    Firewall service disabled and can't enable it back


    Firewall service disabled and can't enable it back 20965473-2840-4ba4-9915-43fd0767e9dd?upload=true.png

    Firewall service is disabled and as you see above it's grayed out and i can't change anything , so i need help on how to fix this and turn it back on

    Keep in mind that this issue occurred before installing an antivirus , but i recently installed kaspersky and ran a full scan to find out any virus or malware that may be causing this and then i cleaned and deleted everything that was a found but that didn't fix it , so it isn't an antivirus that blocking the firewall or a malware .

    :)

    How to turn windows firewall service off permanently?

    When I disable the firewall service then it stays disabled. If this is different on your machine then you must have some agent that keeps re-enabling it. You now need to find this agent. Here are a few steps you need to take:

    • Run services.msc and disable the service. Close services.msc, then re-open it 5 minutes later. Is the service enabled or disabled?
    • Reboot the machine into Safe Mode with Shift+Restart. Is the service enabled or disabled?

    Yeah, I have windows firewall disabled, and I don't use any other firewall... mostly to prevent stupid issues like this.

    None taken... and yeah, I do.

    Firewall service disabled and can't enable it back

    Enabling windows firewall in windows 10

    Hi,

    What happens when you try to enable Windows Firewall? Does the edition of Avast have firewall feature in it? If a 3rd party firewall exists in the system, Windows Firewall is disabled.

    Right-click Start, click Control Panel

    Click Security and Maintenance

    Click "Security" to expand it.

    What's listed there for Network firewall?
