i am unable to start the windows firewall service. windows could not start the windows firewall on local computer. for more information, review the system event log. Error code 5. Eventvwr The Windows Firewall service terminated with the following service-specific error: Access is denied. Tried some solution from the internet, but it doesn't work I have added mvpsvc service string to full permission in regedit. i have uninstalled the Symantec antivirus.
Perhaps you've been infected by a virus or a trojan, are you logged as administrator ? If yes you should try to download an antivirus and see the results after analysing.
i am logon to the administrator account. without the firewall service, i cant install any windows 8 apps store programs HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SharedAccess added to MpsSvc Event ID: 7024 – The Windows Firewall service terminated with service-specific error 5 (0×5) but still cannot start windows 8 firewall service
Seems to be that your Windows 8 isn't properly activated and therefore you got some problems. IF you had used an so called "Activator" you'll have to reset your system.
THANK YOU SO MUCH! THIS WORKED FOR ME. After Googling 100's of different solutions, this one finally did the trick.
