Solved Error 1068 when starting Windows Firewall Service

[jjgrayg]

Okay, I have been having issues with my network etc. for a long time now and I fixed it, but during that adventure I found that Windows Firewall isn't working right. The exact issue is when I try to go in and start the service manually I get "Error 1068: The dependancy service or group failed to start." I know I have the required services runnung except the Internet Connection Sharing service which gives me the same error. I have tried reseting winsock and all that other stuff but it just dosn't work.

Thanks in advance.

I feel so stupid now... The Base Filtering Engine Service was desabled so I set it to automatic and now everything works. Thanks!
