could not start the Windows Firewall/Internet Connection Sharing

[snazzy]

When I try to start the Windows Firewall/Internet Connection Sharing the
following error appears:
Could not start the Windows Firewall/Internet Connection Sharing (ICS)
service on Local computer. Error 170: The requested resource is in use.

Routing and Remote Access has not been started.

I did have a anti-virus software but it was removed.

Hello snazzy,

What operating system are you talking about?

Best regards

Hello snazzy,

Check if all of this services are running, if not start it:
1. Remote Procedure call (RPC)
2. Windows Managegement Instrumentation
3. Eventlog
4. Network connections

Also reset Winsock by running the following command
from a command prompt: "netsh winsock reset" (without the quotes).

Best regards
