Windows 10: Win Push Notification User Service Stopped Working error

Hello there, I'm not sure if this is the right area to post this in but maybe someone has heard something about this error. I am getting a "Windows Push Notificatons User Service has stopped working" error after restarting my PC and hitting the Start button for the first time.

I have tried the advice given in this thread here but it didn't seem to make a difference. Someone mentioned in that post that they think this issue is related to store applications connecting to Microsoft, and seems linked to the Start Menu. I can sorta back this up because the error began right after installing the Comodo Firewall and when I disable the firewall it doesn't happen. So I assume something is being blocked somewhere. Maybe there is some process I can whitelist in my firewall to make it work?

Any insight into this would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

:)

Windows Push Notification User Service always crashing

For the past week, I've continually found this critical error in my reliability monitor - Windows Push Notifications User Service stopped working. I have used sfc /scannow, chkdsk /f C: and DISM and they all
have shown no problems. I have also done multiple virus/malware scans using my own software, online scans, windows defender and boot-time scans. Nothing. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

Push Notifications and Live Tiles Are Not Working... at all

Is there any way to get push notifications and live tiles to work without completely wiping my phone. These live tiles were listed as a "feature" and now it seems to be useless. I want to be able to use Spell It and AlphaJax, but both programs give
me an error saying that there is an error with Microsoft's Push Notification service. I wiped my phone and installed all of my apps and I was able to see the notifications and live tiles, but after restored my phone to the pre-NoGo update the push notification
error is still there.

When is a fix to be in place? I have the NoGo update already on my ATT Samsung Focus.
