Recently i noticed my windows firewall was down and i figured it was my norton 360 so i turned off my smart firewall and tried to open my windows firewall again but still got the same error Windows Firewall can't change some of your settings Error code 0x8007042c. Could i be possibly not turning off the norton firewall or is there something more to this?

Welcome,
The windows firewall is turned off by 360 and will remain off until you uninstall 360. They are in conflict when they are both on.
Stay well and surf safe
I recently installed Norton 360, and now ALL of my modern (metro) apps will not update. Error message states that it's because the windows firewall is disabled... Norton won't let me enable it.
Am I to understand that I can't enjoy modern (metro) apps in Windows 8 if I use this product???
