ERROR_INSTALL_FIREWALL_SERVICE_NOT_RUNNING

ERROR_INSTALL_FIREWALL_SERVICE_NOT_RUNNING means package deployment required the Windows Firewall service, but the service was not running.

Do not disable security services to work around the deployment failure. Determine why the service is stopped and restore the managed service configuration if policy permits it.

What to check

Check the status and startup configuration of the Windows Firewall service (MpsSvc).
Review Group Policy, endpoint security, and service-control logs for the reason it is not running.
After the service condition is resolved, retry once and retain the deployment Activity ID if installation still fails.

Get-Service MpsSvc
