Windows Firewall Error Code 0x6d9 [Solution]

Accessing the internet has become a mandatory task in our daily lives. The Windows Firewall was introduced to control the incoming and outgoing requests of your computer system. The firewall receives its share of updates and Microsoft tends to improve drastically with every major update. Some of us like to keep the Windows Defender Firewall off as it can sometimes block certain requests that prevent us from doing what we aimed to. Sometimes, if you try to turn the Windows Defender Firewall back on, you will be given the error code 0x6d9 with a message stating ‘There was an error opening the Windows Firewall with Advanced Security snap-in’.

Issues addressed in this tutorial:
windows firewall not working windows 11
windows firewall not blocking program

windows firewall not allowed not restricted
windows firewall not configured
windows firewall not found in services
firewall not working windows 11
windows firewall advanced settings not opening
