Windows 10: Windows Firewall service not starting

so the story goes back to a week when i pirated malware bytes anti malware and i think that is the reason why this has happen.The pirated zip file contained a executable and the pirate said to run this as admin i did it because he was a trusted pirated however i can tell that thing had an relation with the firewall because after i ran it i was prompted by a firewall window asking to make malware bytes gain access. Malware bytes didn't work so i uninstalled it , after a reboot everything went wrong the firewall service disappeared, i was unable to update uwp's from the windows store i use the windows store quiet often but it still didn't matter to me because i was fine with the version i am using but the bad thing was that essential apps like photos and mail were stuck in an update.I tried everything and i saw an person on the internet who gave me a registry to download to bring back the firewall though he brought the firewall service back he was unable to make it start.plz help me Microsoft.
