There are two main issues we see causing this error:
One is a permissions/security setting issue - so we need ot run the following at a command
prompt just to be sure:
1. Click Start, click Run, type "cmd" (without the quotation marks),
and then press ENTER.
2. Type "secedit /configure /cfg %windir%\repair\secsetup.inf /db
secsetup.sdb /verbose" (without the quotation marks), and then press
ENTER. You receive a "Task is completed" message, and a warning message
that something could not be done. You can safely ignore this message.
For more information about this message, view the
%windir%\Security\Logs\Scesrv.log file.
The second issue is that a third party product changed the dependsonservice in the registry
for the firewall.
Open regedit and drill down to:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\SharedAccess
When you click on the SharedAccess folder, on the right there is a dependsonservice. The
Data for that entry should only be Netman or RPcss (ok if WinMgmt is there but nothing else
should be there) and either Netman or RPcss MST be there.
One of the above should resolve your issue for you.
