Hello stylinwiley I suggest going to services click start go to run and type services.msc from there

scroll down till you see windows firewall/internet connection sharing (ics) right click on it and choose properties under start up type choose automatic now click apply then OK and restart your computer see if that works

RESOLUTION

To resolve this issue:

1. Click Start, point to Programs, point to Administrative Tools, and then click Services.

2. Double-click the service that did not start.

3. Click the Log On tab.

4. Verify that the service has not been disabled for the hardware profile that you are using. If it has, click Enable.

5. Click the General tab. Verify that the service has not been disabled in the Startup Type box. If it has, click Automatic to have it start when you start the computer.
