Windows firewall needs turned on to install in Windows 7-wireless install

HP Photosmart Premium Fax e All in one printer c410A
1. Lost abilty to connect with printer & Diagnostics say to reinstall. 
2.  I am installing latest version, and have followed all steps meticulously but in order to install it says I have to have windows firewall on. (HP Software will not fix problem nor will windows software, and I can not tun on manually. )
HP installation exits uninstalling as it goes.
I have AVG antivirus installed & firewall is on there.
Any ideas?

Hello Tango2014, and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
I see you are experiencing installation issues. I would like to help.
I would suggest Uninstalling the Printer Software.
Once it is uninstalled, I would suggest putting your system into clean boot mode within the Microsoft configuration.  You can do so by following this document: How to perform a clean boot in Windows.
Once the computer is in clean boot mode, I would suggest reinstalling the HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows.
Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!

  • Have tried downloading F 4.0.1 several times on Windows desktop XP2 with "save the file". It appears to download, but never is activated. I this related to MAfee firewall as well as Windows firewall on? How do I inactivate windows firewall emporarily?

    Hey Guys,
    I managed to fix this issue myself..I can access the home page as normal.
    This is what fixed the issue.
    Step 1 : Un-installed Oracle XE while logged in to the domain. ( Made sure it cleaned all installation files and registry and env variables by cross checking registry as mentioned here .
    Step 2 : Logged in as admin on the local machine ( not domain ) and reinstalled it. Now it works just fine. (Closed all programs - didn’t open any programs..just ran Oracle installation )
    I did install oracle xe logged in as a domain user before ( and my domain is user is part of local administrators) and it all worked just fine. May be it’s a permissions issue ( though I ran oracle installation as admin ) or host name change issue.
    Phew..anyhow..finally it works!!
    Cheers.

  • SCE 2010 Alerts when windows firewall is turned off

    Is it possible in SCE 2010 to have a email alert when someone manually turns off their firewall and does not turn it back on again? And if so how can that be accomplished? Originally I was going to just enforce this from Group Policy but this doesn't allow
    people to enable or disable their firewalls. It just enables the firewall and grays out all other options. 
    This is a Domain with two 2008 R2 servers. The reason people need to be able to turn off their firewalls is for testing purposes. 
    Thank you so much.
    Knowledge is Power.

    When the firewall is turned off, it will generate an event log. You could create a monitor Alert Generating NT-Event-Log-Based Rule to monitor this event log.

  • Photoshop will not launch. Window indicates need JAVA SE6. Already have it, but re-installed. Photoshop will still not launch. Help! MacOS 10.10.1

    Since installing Mac OS 10.10.1 photoshop will not run, it will not launch. A window indicates that it needs JAVA SE6 to run. JAVA SE6 is installed. I have re-installed and restarted but photoshop will not run and I get the same message window that I need to install JAVA SE6. How do I make this work?

    Have you added any Photoshop Add-on that uses an external JavaScript.  Photoshop itself has is own ScriptingSupport Plug-in and does not use an external java.  Also Java SE6 is old and has security issues you should update to version SE8

  • Why does my Windows Firewall keep turning off briefly?

    I have just run a recovery on my dad's Pavilion Media Center TV m7470n Desktop, which restored XP Media Edition 2005 SP2. I then installed SP3 and used Windows Update to get more recent updates. The system is now working fine, but every so often I get a popup notification that says the Windows Firewall is off. The popup balloon quickly, and when I go into the Security Center the Windows Firewall shows up as on. I ran a full scan with Microsoft Security Essentials and I also tried Trend Micro's HouseCall and RootkitBuster. None of the scans showed any threats, but I'm still uncomfortable with the myesterious balloon popping up several times a day. Does anyone have any insight?
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hello,
    Thank you for posting in the HP Support forum!
    1. When you go to Control Panel -> Windows Firewall
    do you see the firewall in ON condition (despite the security center warnings) ?
    2. Click on Start -> Run -> type services.msc and hit OK. In the list that will open, navigate to Windows Firewall and see if the service is set to Automatic and if it is started
    3. Let's flush the Security Center's memory :-)
    Click on Start -> Run -> type services.msc and hit OK.
    In the list that will open, navigate to Windows Management Instrumentation, right-click on it, and choose Stop.
    Open My Computer/Windows Explorer and goto c:\Windows\system32\WBEM
    There you will see a folder called Repository.
    Right click it and rename it to rep_old
    Again, go to services.msc and now start the Windows Management Instrument service.
    After that, please, restart your computer.
    Note, that after the restart the computer will rebuild the Repository folder and the first start after that might be slower than usual. Additionally, some services might be delayed.
    Additional precautions I would take:
    - Please, scan your computer for the presence of malware using HitmanPro (free):
    Information -> http://www.surfright.nl/en/hitmanpro/
    Download -> http://www.surfright.nl/en/downloads/  (32-bit version is yours)
    Windows XP is getting out of support very soon - in less than 3 months Microsoft will stop supporting it anymore. It goes into history. It is highly recommended that you upgrade to newer operating system in order to use the latest technology, enjoy better security, faster and better programs, support, etc.
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/end-support-help
    If you plan on continue using Windows XP for longer (after Microsoft stops supporting it), I would choose another antivirus and firewall solution for the computer such as third party firewall like ZoneAlarm , and/or third party antivirus software like Norton Antivirus, McAfee Internet security, Kaspersky, ESET, etc. or all-in-one suit.

  • Windows Firewall with Advanced Secuirty config for SCOM2012 R2

    We are trying to get SCOM installed on our sharepoint servers, but for whatever reason they require to have the windows firewall enabled. 
    Here are the things that I know
    There is no hard firewall between the SCOM server and the Sharepoint Server in question
    I added all the required ports to inbound and outbound both TCP and UDP connections
    I added even all local and remote ports to inbound and outbound TCP and UDP connection
    Windows firewall is turned off on the SCOM server
    When Running SMOKE it still gives 10/11 errors only thing that works is the PING
    Not sure what else to do short of turning off the firewall but that is not an option because they require it.

    Hi,
    Here is an official article talks about ports required for your reference.

  • Error during the installation of Windows 8 Apps while having Windows Firewall disabled

    Hello,
    I have a question:
    I have Windows Firewall disabled in W8  and when  I try to install  APPs from the Windows Appstore  I obtain an error message saying something like:
    "The app couldn´t be installed because Windows Firewall service is not running. Enable Windows Firewall service and try again"
    I have the Firewall of Windows disabled because I already have another program for this purpose (monitoring/tracking my internet connections). So, that´s why I want to keep it disabled.
    Does anybody know if this problem is going to be fixed and in the next future we will be able to install W8 Apps with the Firewall of Windows disabled?
    Thanks in advance for the info.
    Regards.

    Hi,
    thanks to the steps of the webpage you have posted I´ve seen the code of the error in the log of my computer:
    error 0x80073D0A: when trying to install the package XXXXXXXX, the system couldn´t register the extension windows.repositoryExtension owing to the next error: The package couldn´t be installed because the service "Firewall of Windows" is
    not running. Enable the service "Firewall of Windows" and try again.
    It matches with one of the codes of your link.
    I think this question should be fixed. I (and I suppose much more people) already have a Firewall different than Microsofts´one and I want to have access to the Windows Store running only my "third-part firewall". Having two Firewalls running is a waste
    of resources.
    Regards.

  • Windows firewall keeps switching itself on!?

    I have a funny problem that the Windows firewall seemingly refuses to accept that there is another firewall on my computer, and instead keeps switching itself on. I keep turning it off all the time, but it just won't take no for an answer.
    Every time I start my computer the Windows firewall is on, as well as the Comodo Internet Security firewall that is the firewall I want to run. The Windows security center reports that both firewalls are on (so, in particular, it recognizes Comodo), so I turn off the Windows firewall. This I have to do after every reboot. Also, as soon as I switch from cable Internet connection to wireless connection, the Windows firewall silently turns itself on again. This is a problem since it screws up my wireless connection to have two firewalls running at the same time. Again, turning the Windows firewall off manually works just fine --- or so the system says --- but when there is a change of connection status from cable to wireless the firewall is turned on again.
    I have spent quite some time now trying to solve this problem. I finally asked at the Comodo user forum, and got the advice to run services.msc, go to Windows Firewall, right click to get properties and then change the start type from automatic to manual. This works, but now I can no longer check the firewall status in the security center since the whole service has been shut down (I get a popup window with the message "Windows Firewall settings cannot be displayed because the associated service is not running. Do you want to start the Windows Firewall service?"). Therefore, it seems to me that this is a pretty big hammer to use just to stop the Windows firewall from respecting being turned off and staying turned off.
    So is there a better way of solving this problem than hacking the settings in services.msc? In particular, could there be some settings for the wireless card that turns the Windows firewall on that I should change instead? I have been trying to search for such settings, but have not found anything. Any advice would be very much appreciated.
    To the extent that it is relevant, I am running Comodo Internet Security 3.13 on 64-bit Vista Business SP 2 on a Lenovo X200.

    I think you missed the point, the remote app sends a signal to AppleTV to turn it on. I am not sending any signals to AppleTV to turn it on. There is also no HDMI activity, it is purely network. So AppleTV is waking for whatever reason. It shouldn't wake until I tell it to.
    Your TV doesn't decide to wake itself does it?
    Your VCR/DVD/BR players don't turn themselves on?
    Your PC Doesn't? ... unless you've scheduled it.
    Your car doesn't randomly start itself?
    You see where I'm going with this. There should be an option in ... 'options' to stop this from happening, and also an explanation of what it is doing in the first place. It should not, unless allowed to by the user, wake itself.

  • Problem (and resolution) with VI Server and Windows Firewall

    I have recently implemented a version of the "Rendezvous" VI's that work over the network using the VI Server.  Essentially, I wrote wrapper functions using "Call by Reference" for each of the  VI's in the  Rendezvous palate.  I have an isolated subnetwork that all the machine are on (i.e. no internet, no DNS).  The VI's work great on the local machine, or on networked machines when the Windows Firewall is turned off.  However, when the Windows Firewall is on for the CLIENT machine, I get an error trying to access the VI Server on the Server machine.  My understanding is that the windows firewall is inbound only?  Regardless, I entered "exceptions" for all possible ports that LabVIEW should be using as listed in:
    http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/2ED134294484FB4E86257212005951DA
    I'm running the VI Server on port 3362, so I also included that one.  I included the exceptions on both the client and the server machine.  I also made sure to include exceptions for the applications on both the client and the server machine.  None of that made any difference: with the windows firewall on the client machine, it could not connect to the server machine with the VI Server.
    Using the "netstat" command (windows xp). I was able to see that the host machine was trying to connect to the client machine on a port around 1044 (can't remember exactly).  With each instance that the client tried to connect to the host, the host would increment the port by 1.  i.e. 1044, 1045, 1046, etc....Just to test this out, I included and exceptions for three ports above 1046 on the client: 1047, 1048, 1049.  The client could connect for these instances, but once it got to 1050, it gave me the connection error again.  How in the world can you deal with this in the end application?  no firewall?
    Regardless, I found out another solution:  include entries for all the client machines in the "hosts" file on the server machine.
    This windows version of the "lmhosts" file resides at: [WINDOWS]\system32\drivers\etc
    The "lmhosts.sam" file contains documentation on entries in the "hosts" file.
    Incidentally, I also discovered that client entries in the "hosts" on the host machine drastically reduce timeouts associated with using the datasockets server on networks with no dedicated DNS.  (I believe datasockets tries to do a reverse lookup and has to time out, with the hosts entry the lookup executes immediately)
    Enjoy!

    I have no entries in the "hosts" file on the client side.  I only made entries to the "hosts" file on the server.  That's the weird part!  The client firewall blocks the connection unless the server has and entry for it in the "hosts" file! 
    I haven't really used the shared variable that much and haven't tried it.  If I had to speculate, I would guess that it may affect it similarly.  It did seem to have a positive effect in shortening the long duration timeouts that I was having with datasockets.

  • LaserJet Pro CP1025nw - Software Installation Stalls During a Wireless Install

    In case anyone runs into an issue with the install freezing during a wireless install, HP has provided information on getting the unit installed properly in the following doc.
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02607413&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&jumpid=reg_R1002_US...
    Though I work for HP, My posts express MY opinion, and not those of HP.

    Hello
    I see that yous are having issue setting up the cp1025nw on the 10.8.
    You can configure the printer on the wireless network through ethernet cable without any software.
    Restore the printer back to factory settings if not already setup on the network from another computer.
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02471640&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&jumpid=reg_r1002_us...
    Connect the network cable to the product and to the router. (temporary)
    Wait about 1 minute and then print a configuration page.
    (select operating system then select Method one.)
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02495036&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&jumpid=reg_r1002_us...
    Use the ip address from the configuration page and type it in the address bar of browser (internet explorer, safarari)
    This will open the embedded web server for the printer.
    Select the networking tab, select wireless on the left side, set it to infrastructure and put in encrytian
    (network passwords) apply then remove the ethernet cable from the printer.
    Should have a solid blue light in about 1 minute.
    Then on the mac just add the printer with the airprint driver.
    Click on the Apple, click System & Preferences, and then click the Print & Scan icon,click add a printer, then select the printer from the list, make sure the name listed beside use: shows airprint, select add.
    Test the printer on the wireless now.
    Let me know how this turns out.

    Restore from the backup you had prior to installing Mavericks.
    However, the upgrade should not have altered your partition scheme. Did your erase and format the drive prior to upgrading?
