Hello I've been checking all over the internet and I've also had a lot of people helping me with this but no one seems to know how to help me so i hope you guys can. What happening is that when i go into my Windows Firewall With Advanced Security there's this box and it says "There was an error opening the windows firewall with Advanced Security snap-in" And then under that there is "The windows firewall with Advanced security snap-in failed to load. Restart the windows Firewall service on the computer that are are managing. Error code: 0x6D9." And i am running this as Administrator and also I've been trying to update my computer but it keeps failing and everything is just failing and i'm also having troubles port forwarding and things but this firewall stuff i am most focused on. Please help.. Thanks BBGun007
