Windows Defender Firewall Authorization Driver is a kernel mode driver that provides deep inspection services on inbound and outbound network traffic.
Default Settings
| Startup type: | Manual |
| Display name: | Windows Defender Firewall Authorization Driver |
| Service name: | mpsdrv |
| Service type: | kernel |
| Error control: | normal |
| Group: | network |
| Path: | %SystemRoot%\System32\drivers\mpsdrv.sys |
| Registry key: | HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\mpsdrv |
Default Behavior
Windows Defender Firewall Authorization Driver is a kernel device driver. In Windows 10 it is starting only if the user, an application or another service starts it. If Windows Defender Firewall Authorization Driver fails to start, the failure details are being recorded into Event Log. Then Windows 10 will start up and notify the user that the mpsdrv service has failed to start due to the error.
Dependencies
While Windows Defender Firewall Authorization Driver is stopped, the Windows Defender Firewall service cannot be launched.
Restore Default Startup Configuration of Windows Defender Firewall Authorization Driver
1. Run the Command Prompt as an administrator.
2. Copy the command below, paste it into the command window and press ENTER:
sc config mpsdrv start= demand
3. Close the command window and restart the computer.
The mpsdrv service is using the mpsdrv.sys file that is located in the C:\Windows\System32\drivers directory. If the file is removed or corrupted, read this article to restore its original version from Windows 10 installation media.
The “Windows could not start the Windows Firewall Service” is a general error that occurs whenever your system can’t run the Firewall Service. There are many possible error codes that come with this error. The Error 1068 code indicates that the dependencies of the service could not start, leading to this error.
Since this indicates problems with the dependency service or accounts, you need to troubleshoot these processes or groups to resolve the error. Sometimes the Firewall Service itself may have some issues which you can resolve by reinstalling it.
There may be a few more additional solutions you need to apply depending on the exact cause on your end. In this article, we have explained all the probable causes along with their corresponding solutions.
What Causes “Windows Could Not Start the Windows Firewall Service on Local Computer”
Here are the potential causes of the above error:
- Dependency services failing to start.
- Errors with the Windows Defender Firewall Authorization Driver.
- System file corruption.
- Malware infection.
- Registry permission issues.
How to Fix “Windows Could Not Start the Windows Firewall Service on Local Computer”
First, make sure there are no internet connection issues. Then, apply the possible solutions below to successfully start Windows Firewall service on your system.
Check Necessary Services
Windows Firewall depends on a few services for its operation. So the first thing you should do is make sure they are running properly. Here’s how you can do so and set the proper setting to run them automatically:
- Boot your computer in safe mode. To do so,
- Open Run by pressing Win + R.
- Type
cmdand press Ctrl + Shift + Enter to open the Elevated Command Prompt. - Enter the command
bcdedit /set {current} safeboot minimal
- Restart your PC.
- After booting in safe mode, open Run.
- Type
services.mscand press Ctrl + Shift + Enter to open Windows Services as admin. - Look for the following services and check their Status:
- Base Filtering Engine
- Remote Procedure Call (RPC)
- DCOM Server Process Launcher
- RPC Endpoint Mapper
- Network Store Interface Service
- Windows Defender Firewall
- If any service is not running or its Startup Type doesn’t show Automatic,
- Double-click on it.
- Set the Startup type to Automatic and click OK.
- After that, open the Elevated Command Prompt and enter the command below to disable safe mode on the next boot:
bcdedit /deletevalue {current} safeboot
Restart your PC and check if you still encounter the issue.
Restore Windows Defender Firewall Authorization Driver
Your Windows Defender Firewall uses the Windows Defender Firewall Authorization Driver mspdrv.sys to run properly. So, you also need to make sure this driver has no issues. Here’s how you can do so:
- Open the Elevated Command Prompt.
- Enter the following command to check the status of the driver:
sc qc mpsdrv
- You need to make sure the START_TYPE shows DEMAND_START. If it’s different, enter the command:
sc config mpsdrv start=demand - Restart your PC and check if the error occurs again.
- You can also run
sfc /verifyfile=C:\windows\system32\drivers\mpsdrv.syson the Elevated Prompt to check if the file has some issues.
- If it finds an integrity violation, try running
sfc /scanfile=C:\windows\system32\drivers\mpsdrv.sys
Also, you can’t run these commands if the file is missing so check the location through the file explorer in such cases. If the file is missing or SFC can’t fix the corruption, you need to transfer a working copy from a different computer.
Reinstall Windows Firewall
You can also try reinstalling the Windows Firewall altogether to resolve any errors within. This resets any changes you made to the Firewall profile, however it is better than not being able to run this process at all. Here’s what you need to do:
- Open the Elevated Command Prompt.
- Enter the following commands:
Rundll32 setupapi,InstallHinfSection Ndi-Steelhead 132 %windir%\inf\netrass.infsc start mpssvcnetsh advfirewall resetnetsh advfirewall set domainprofile state onnetsh advfirewall set privateprofile state on
Restart your PC and check if the issue resolves.
Repair Corrupt System Files
We have already mentioned that the Windows Firewall service relies on many dependencies. So, if any one of such files is corrupt you will experience the above error. You need to run the System File Checker on all system files to check for and repair any potential corruption to prevent such issues. To do so,
- Open the Elevated Command Prompt.
- Enter the command
sfc /scannow
Scan for Malware
By default, Windows is configured to have the proper settings and files for running Windows Firewall. So unless you made the unnecessary changes, any errors in the settings or files are likely due to some malware script.
The above methods may help resolve your issue, but you need to detect and remove the malware to prevent the error from occurring again. Here’s how you can do so using the built-in Windows Security or Defender:
- Open Run and enter
ms-settings:windowsdefender - Go to Virus & threat protection and then Scan options.
- Check Full scan and click on Scan now.
Disable Third-Party Antivirus
Many third-party antiviruses are responsible for blocking dependency services from starting. While they may actually contain malware or threats, usually it’s a false positive.
Windows already contains a fantastic antivirus, the Windows Defender, so you don’t really need other security apps. If you still want to use them, you can try disabling them temporarily and see if the Windows Firewall service can start without any issues. However, make sure that your computer does not contain any threats before doing so.
The process to disable the antivirus differs between the different software. So, we recommend checking the official website if necessary.
Set LocalService and NetworkService Users to Admin Group
You can also encounter this error if there are permission issues related to the LocalService or NetworkService groups. Windows Firewall logs on through the LocalService account so such issues prevent starting the Firewall.
You can try creating a new user account to avoid this issue. However, if you want to resolve the problem in your original account, you can try adding the above users to the Administrators group which bypasses the original permissions. Here’s how you can do so:
- Open the Elevated Command Prompt
- Enter the following commands:
net localgroup administrators localservice /addnet localgroup administrators networkservice /add
Restart your PC and check if the issue persists.
Perform a System Restore
If you have a suitable restore point where the Firewall could start without any issues, you can try restoring your system back to that point. This takes care of any registry errors as well as system file corruption that your system encountered afterward. To do so,
- Open Run and enter
rstruito launch the app. - Select the appropriate restore point and follow the on-screen instructions.
Во все современные версии Windows встроен брандмауэр Windows Defender Firewall. Это встроенный программный межсетевой экран, который защищает Windows от несанкционированного внешнего доступа к компьютеру и запущенным на нем службам. По умолчанию брандмауэр Windows включен и защищает все сетевые интерфейсы компьютера. Брандмауэр блокирует все входящие подключения и разрешает все исходящие.
Содержание:
- Отключить/включить брандмауэр из панели управления Windows
- Отключить Windows Firewall через GPO
- Как отключить или включить брандмауэр Windows с помощью PowerShell?
В подавляющем большинстве случае Windows Firewall должен быть включен. Если вам нужно разрешить доступ к компьютеру для определенной службы или IP адреса, просто создайте разрешающее правило. Однако в некоторых ситуациях администратору нужно полностью отключить Windows Defender Firewall для проверки сетевых подключений. В этой статье мы покажем несколько способов, как отключить и включить встроенный брандмауэр Windows.
Отключить/включить брандмауэр из панели управления Windows
В современных версиях Windows 10 и 11 для управления брандмауэром используется панель Безопасность Windows (Windows Security).
Если панель Windows Security не открывается или повреждена, вы можете восстановить ее.
- Перейдите в меню Параметры (Settings -> Update & Security -> Windows Security) или выполните команду
windowsdefender://network/
; - Выберите раздел Firewall and network protection;
- По очереди щелкните по каждому из трех сетевых профилей (Domain, Private и Public) и отключите Microsoft Defender Firewall;
,
- Подтвердите отключение в окне User Account Control.
В Windows для каждого сетевого подключения используется один из трех сетевых профилей:
- Domain – применяется для компьютеров, которые добавлены в домен AD
- Private – для небольших офисных LAN, рабочих групп и домашней сети
- Public – для общественных сетей (кафе, аэропорты)
В зависимости от типа сети к сетевому интерфейсу применяются различные правила брандмауэра и настройки обнаружения Windows в сетевом окружении. Вы можете изменить профиль сети подключения как описано тут.
В предыдущих версиях Windows и в Windows Server 2012R2/2016/2019 можно отключить брандмауэр через классическую панель управления «Windows Firewall with Advanced Security«:
- Откройте консоль
firewall.cpl
; - Щелкните по Turn Windows Defender Firewall on or off;
- Отключите Windows Defender firewall для всех типов сетей.
Если на компьютере есть несколько сетевых интерфейсов, вы можете отключить файервол только для некоторых из них.
- Нажмите кнопку Advanced Settings -> Windows Defender Firewall properties;
- В настройках каждого сетевого профиля есть раздел Protected network connections. Нажмите кнопку Customize;
- Снимите галки с тех сетевых интерфейсов, для которых нужно отключить брандмауэр.
- Аналогичным образом отключите защиту сетевых интерфейсов брандмуэром в настройках других сетевых профилей.
Когда вы отключаете брандмауэр, в трее начнет отображаться соответствующее уведомление.
Чтобы скрыть это всплывающее уведомление, добавьте следующий параметр реестра:
reg add "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows Defender Security Center\Notifications" /v "DisableNotifications" /t REG_DWORD /d "1" /f
Обратите внимание, что в Windows есть отдельная системная служба Windows Defender Firewall (
mpssvc
). Если вы отключите или приостановите эту службу, это не отключит брандмауэр до тех пор, пока вы сами не отключите защиту для сетевых профилей.
Однако через остановку служб вы можете отключить встроенный антивирус Защитник Windows.
Отключить Windows Firewall через GPO
Вы можете отключить Windows Firewall с помощью групповых политик.
На отдельном компьютере нужно использовать консоль редактора локальной групповой политики (
gpedit,msc
), а в доменной среде нужно создать новую GPO с помощью консоли управления GPMC.
- Откройте GPO и перейдите в раздел Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Network -> Network Connections -> Windows Firewall -> Domain Profile.
- Откройте параметр “Windows Firewall: Protect all network connections” и измените значение на Disabled;
- Аналогичным образом измените параметр в секции Standard Profile;
- Обновите настройки GPO на компьютере и проверьте, что брандмауэр для доменного профиля отключен;
- Если компьютер будет подключен к сети, отличной от доменной, Windows Firewall будет защищать такое подключение.
- Если вы хотите отключить брандмауэр для всех сетевых профилей, перейдите в раздел GPO Computer Configuration -> Windows Settings -> Security Settings -> Windows Firewall with Advanced Security. Отключите файервол на вкладках всех трех сетевых профилей.
После того, как вы отключили Windows Firewall через GPO, пользователь не сможет включить его вручную через панель управления.
Как отключить или включить брандмауэр Windows с помощью PowerShell?
Для управления Windows Firewall из командной строки можно использовать PowerShell.
Проверьте, что брандмауэр включен для всех трех сетевых профилей:
Get-NetFirewallProfile | Format-Table Name, Enabled
Можно отключить брандмауэр только для одного сетевого профиля:
Set-NetFirewallProfile -Profile Domain -Enabled False
Или отключить firewall сразу для всех сетевых профилей:
Set-NetFirewallProfile -Profile Domain, Public, Private -Enabled False
Чтобы включить Windows Defender, выполните команду:
Set-NetFirewallProfile -Profile Domain, Public, Private -Enabled True
Вы можете отключить защиту брандмауэра для конкретного сетевого подключения. Чтобы узнать имя сетевого подключения, выведите их список:
Get-NetAdapter
Теперь можно отключить файервол для выбранного интерфейса:
Set-NetFirewallProfile -Profile Domain, Public, Private -DisabledInterfaceAliases "My_Internal_NIC1"
Вывести список сетевых адаптеров, которые исключены из файервола:
Get-NetFirewallProfile | select Name,Enabled,DisabledInterfaceAliases
Очистить список исключений:
Set-NetFirewallProfile -Profile Domain,Public,Private -DisabledInterfaceAliases @()
Fix Windows Firewall problems in Windows 10: A firewall is an inbuilt security feature in Windows 10 which protects & prevent malicious attacks on your system. Windows Firewall is one of the best security features of Windows 10 which prevents unauthorized access to your PC. Firewall block harmful programs & apps to infect your system with a virus or malware. It is regarded as the first layer of defense for your PC. Therefore, it is always recommended to make sure your Windows Firewall is turned ON.
What is the Windows Firewall?
Firewall: A Firewall is a Network Security system that monitors & controls the incoming and outgoing network traffic based on predetermined security rules. A firewall basically acts as a barrier between the incoming network and your computer network that allows only those networks to pass through which according to predetermined rules are considered to be trusted networks and block untrusted networks. The Windows Firewall also helps in keeping unauthorized users away from accessing resources or files of your computer by blocking them. So a Firewall is a very important feature for your computer and it is absolutely necessary if you want your PC to be safe & secure.
Now everything about Firewall sounds wonderful but what happens when you can’t turn on your Firewall? Well, users are facing this issue exactly and worried about the security of their system. The problem you face with Windows Firewall can be categorized into various error codes such as 0x80004015, Event ID: 7024, Error 1068 and others. So if you stumble upon any of these Windows Firewall errors, this article will give you comprehensive details about working methods to fix the firewall issue in Windows 10.

5.If everything is working properly, you can close the troubleshooter.
If the troubleshooter doesn’t fix the problem, you need to click on the View Detailed information to check what errors are not fixed. Having information about the errors you can move further to fix Windows Firewall problems.
Method 2: Reset Windows Firewall Settings to Default
If the troubleshooter did not find any solution to the problem, then the issue can be entirely different which may be beyond the scope of troubleshooter. This happens when the settings configured for your Firewall might have become corrupted which is way troubleshooter wasn’t able to fix the issue. In such cases, you need to reset the Windows Firewall settings to default which may fix Windows Firewall problems in Windows 10. However, after you reset the Windows Firewall, you need to reconfigure the apps permission through the Firewall.
1.Type control panel in Windows Search bar then click on Control Panel from the search result.
2.Select System and Security option from the Control Panel window.
3.Now click on Windows Defender Firewall.

7.Once finished, review everything then click on OK to save changes.
Method 3: Scan Your System
A Virus is a malicious software program that spreads at a very fast speed from one device to another. Once Internet worm or other malware enters your device, it creates havoc for the user and can cause Windows Firewall problems. So it is possible that there is some malicious code on your PC which can harm your Firewall as well. To deal with malware or viruses it is advised to scan your device with reputed Antivirus software in order to fix Windows Firewall problems. So use this guide to learn more about how to use Malwarebytes Anti-Malware.
Method 4: Restart Windows Defender Firewall Service
Let’s start with restarting the Windows Firewall service. It may be possible that something disrupted its functioning, hence restarting the Firewall service may help you fix Windows Firewall problems in Windows 10.
1.Press Windows key + R then type services.msc and hit Enter.
2.Locate Windows Defender Firewall under the service.msc window.
3.Right-click on Windows Defender Firewall and select the Restart option.
4.Again right-click on Windows Defender Firewall and choose Properties.
5.Make sure that the startup type is set to Automatic.
Method 5: Check Windows Firewall Authorization Driver
You need to check whether the Windows Firewall Authorization Driver (mdsdrv.sys) is working properly or not. In some cases, the main cause of Windows Firewall not working properly can be traced back to the mdsdrv.sys driver.
1.Press Windows Key + R then type devmgmt.msc and hit Enter to open Device Manager.
2.Next, from the View tab click on Show hidden devices.

Having made a decision to remove AVG, I temporarily disabled it and then went about starting Windows Defender (successfully) and Windows Firewall (unsuccessful).
When attempting to start it through control panel/system & security/ and clicking «use recommended settings» i get an error code 0x8007042c
When attempting to start the service directly (via services — running as an administrator, I get an error code 1068.
Properties of the service show dependencies on «Bass Filtering Engine»& «Windows Firewall Authorisation Driver» — I can see that the former is running but have no idea how to check the latter.
Help is very welcome,
thanks

Thanks for the pointer, but that article, whilst quite useful didn’t do the trick. I have been through the malware checks (with support from Corrine) — with an all clear (on my wider PC performance issue), method two returns the 0x8007042c error and method 3 and 4 both return the 1068 error.
I am making an educated guess, that the problem may be the «Windows Firewall Authorisation Driver» as I have no idea what it is nor where to find it.
Thanks

(Did you also try the MSRT? Why did you not uninstall AVG completely? Aren’t you able to reinstall it later? I think it should be the culprit.)

The underlying symptom I am suffering is a sudden slowdown in PC performance which I am trying to resolve. One contender (apparently — but I have my doubts) is AVG. So I do want to uninstall it. However, I don’t want a) my system to be left exposed indefinitely and b) I am not keen on installing another internet security suite until the underlying performance issue is resolved (mainly based on there being no consensus as to what to install. On that basis I am looking to run Windows Defender & Firewall in the short term. However I am now stuck in not being able to start Windows Firewall.
Following other guidance (found here Windows firewall can’t change some of your settings Error code — Microsoft Community)
I ran sfc /scannow — which returned an indication of any violations (btw I have already worked with Corrine to eradicate any maleware possibilities).
C:\Windows\system32>sfc /scannow
Beginning system scan. This process will take some time.
Beginning verification phase of system scan.
Verification 100% complete.
Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations.
I then tried to ‘reset’
C:\Windows\system32>netsh advfirewall reset
An error occurred while attempting to contact the Windows Firewall service. Mak
e sure that the service is running and try your request again.
which returns an helpful windows response (in that it repeats I have a problem but not a resolution)
I then ran the two commands to show the status which are pasted in below. Which unsurprisingly confirmed stopped with a 1058.

With regards to changing the start to ‘demand’ I have no idea how to do that, as in services in Windows 7, I have Automatic, Automatic (Delayed Start), Manual, Disable (via Services) and I cant find any reference to either mpsdrv or Windows Firewall Authentication Drive in the ‘services’ where I would normally change the startup.
Thanks

And I think you can change it from there.
Also, from a command prompt, launch: gpresult -z > «c:\users\%username%\desktop\gpresult.txt»
You should find a txt on your desktop: paste the result here.

OK, first a big thanks for coming back to me. On the Device Manager, you are correct — there are more choices here than when going through the ‘services’. It is currently set to «Automatic», but other settings are available (Boot, Demand, System and Disabled).
I will have a go at changing it to Demand and restarting the machine.
I have run gpresult, not sure if you wanted report as an administrator or not, so I ran both (Pasted below)
Juts as my usual user (I only have one set up on the PC)

My next step is to uninstall AVG and get back to the problem at hand, which is why is the machine is running so badly. However as a specific thread, this is probably solved and I will mark as so — unless you advise not.

I have uninstalled AVG (hopefully completely and tidily). No noticeable change to the PC performance, but that’s another thread
