Re: Trying to turn ON the windows Firewall

I clicked Yes, but it will say then "Windows cannot start the
Windows Firewall/Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) Service."

Open Computer Management. Expand to Services and Applications >
Services. Right-click "Windows Firewall/Internet Connection Sharing
(ICS)", click Start. The service will likely fail to start.

Still in Computer Management, expand Event Viewer > Application. Check
the Application log for errors that state the service failed to start.
Also, check the System log.

Please let us know the details of these error events.
