WLAN AutoConfig service doesn't start, error 1067

    WLAN AutoConfig service gives error 1067 whenever i try to run it.

    What I've tried so far:

    Reset winsock settings
    Ran SFC /scannow
    Did system restore
    Uninstalled and reinstalled drivers



    I tried all of these in normal mode AND in safe mode. None of it worked.

    Then i thought the service dll (C:\Windows\system32\wlansvc.dll) itself might have been damaged/outdated/whatever, so I tried to delete it and put a new one from donor pc, but no luck.
    It wouldn't give me access to the file no matter what i tried, safe mode, unlocker tools, auto rename it on startup, doing everything in administrator and changing permissions under properties. It just won't give me access to the file.

    It was working few days ago and i literally have no idea why it stopped working.

    Specs:

    Windows 7 Professional 32-bit
    Sony VAIO Laptop
    3945ABG Wi-Fi card


    Any idea how to fix it? Thanks in advance

    Hi,

    I suggest you rest winsock and TCP/IP stack to troubleshoot the issue.

     

    1. Click on the Start Button and type CMD in Search Bar. Right click on the Command Prompt shortcut and select Run As Administrator.

    2. In the command prompt window that opens, run the following commands:

     

    netsh winsock reset catalog
    
    netsh int ipv4 reset reset.log
    
    netsh int ipv6 reset reset.log
