Windows 7 64-bit - Base filtering engine won't start

I've researched this topic for like 4 hours. I've tried re-adding the appropriate reg files. I've tried fixing permissions in the registry. I've tried all the cmd line commands. I have no idea how to get this service to run. Because of this the firewall doesn't work. And also i can't open any ports on my router I'm thinking.

I've used ccleaner to fix the errors in my registry, as well as sfc /scannow. I was getting some error when trying to use the win7 installation disc to repair windows so I couldn't do that.

I'm also not infected with zero acess rootkit becaue these aren't found on my computer.

if you find a folder called system64
C:/WINDOWS/SYSTEM64(not the sysWOW64)

and a file called consrv.dll
C:/WINDOWS/SYSTEM32/CONSRV.DLL
You're infected by zero access rootkit.It is recommended to contact malware removal forums to remove it first and try the fix

I've tried this too but to no avail -->

Download both the registry files

bfe.reg

firewall.reg

Launch and import them to registry

Restart your PC

Now,open RUN and type

regedit and click ok

go to

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\BFE

Right click on it-permissions

Click on ADD and type

Everyone and click ok

Now Click on Everyone

Below you have permission for users

Select full control and click ok

Now,open RUN and type

services.msc and click ok

start base filtering engine service and then windows firewall service

For further assistance contact me here, I will be checking this thread every few hours, this worked for me and it should work for you too.

For malware removal I suggest "MBAM" which can be downloaded from;

HTH

Any idea if these services would cause it so I can't see my computer from my phone? And also why I'm unable to open this port?

I want to be able to start the diagnostic policy service and window firewall service.
