Adding permissions "NT Service\mpssvc" not working - the account is not found. Firewall not running (error 5 (0x5))

Hi all,
i have a problem with the firewall-service on a Windows 2008 Std SP2. The firewall service does not start. Access denied problem. I can see that on some registry-keys the permissions for the "NT Service\MpsSvc" account are missing.
I found some similar threads, and
here is decripted what to do.
But if i try to add the permissions for "NT Service\MpsSvc" the server does not find this account - so, i cannot add it to the registry key.
What i have to do that i can select this account ?
Thanks
Bruno

But the problem is, that i can not ADD the account to the registry keys. The account  "NT Service\MpsSvc" is not resolved when i try to add the permissions.

While adding permissions and resolving for account name, in location select "local machine" instead of domain. MpsSvc is local machine account !
Also, please have a look at below article
