Bing 0 Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 I'm not a native speaker of English so if there's any vague description please don't blame me😊 I used Pulse Secure to connect to VPN. My ESET expired few months ago and I remove it with the uninstaller provided by ESET Taiwan [1] (I'll put the link below). Everything works smoothly, and the VPN also works well. Few days ago I bought a new ESET key and reinstalled it. But I can't connect to my VPN anymore. I've tried every methods I could find via supporting community of Pulse Secure [2] (reinstall, running commends etc.). And I found a more serious issue, the firewall (0x8007042c), it is disabled but I can't enable it or fix it even after I uninstalled ESET completely. After trying some methods (fixing 0x8007042c), and non of them succeeded😭. I'm not sure whether ESET causes the firewall issue or not. (Hope it isn't, ESET is the best anti virus app I'd ever used) My os is win10 BTW LINKs⬇️ [1]: https://www.eset.com/tw/about/newsroom/press-releases/news/eset-移除工具與步驟-uninstaller-tool/ [2]: https://community.pulsesecure.net/t5/Pulse-Desktop-Clients/Pulse-Secure-1205-error-after-1st-good-connection/td-p/43760https://community.pulsesecure.net/t5/Pulse-Connect-Secure/Pulse-Secure-Stuck-on-quot-Secure-Connection-quot-Error-1205/td-p/38195https://community.pulsesecure.net/t5/Pulse-Desktop-Clients/Error-1205-Failed-to-setup-Virtual-Adapter/td-p/39880 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itman 1,508 Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 (edited) 8 hours ago, Bing said: c config MpsSvc start= auto This command is wrong. It should be: sc config MpsSvc start= auto Also, did you run the .bat script as admin; e.g. right button mouse click on the .bat file, then select "run as administrator?" Have you tried to reset the Win firewall as noted in this article: https://www.thewindowsclub.com/reset-windows-firewall-settings .
