Greetings,
During application install on Windows Server 2016 I had to change name of the server (hostname).
After changing the name and restarting the server I had a vast number of services not working (stopped):
Network and Sharing Center is not showing any of my adapters (they are shown in device manager though)
Server
Network Location Awareness
Intel Ethernet Thermal Sensor Monitor Service
Network Store Interface Service
Agentless Management Service
DHCP Client
Windows Firewall
UPnP Device Host
Workstation
IP Helper
Windows Remote Managment
User Access Logging Service
Diagnostic Policy Service
Distributed Transaction Coordinator
I cannot start them in Services because I get the "error 1068: the dependency service or group failed to start" error. If I try to start their dependencies I get the same.
If I try to start Server service I get the 1753 error
If I try to start Firewall service I get error code 87
So far I tried everything from the guide on this link:
https://troubleshooter.xyz/wiki/fix-the-dependency-service-or-group-failed-to-start/
and I have tried to return the original server hostname but this did not solve anything.
I still haven't tried to perform repair Windows installation since that is the really last resort.
Any help would be tremendously appreciated.
