Hello all,
I have Windows 10 + Comodo Firewall 10, after Windows 10 Creator Update I cannot open Windows Defender Security Center interface (GUI).
In event Log I have This Errors:

I search the internet and found this:

I have this error from the first day after Windows 10 Creator Update but I waited for Comodo update or Windows Update to fix the problem.
I tried to uninstall Comodo firewall then install CIS. With CIS everything was good without problems so I decide to remove the Antivirus Component and restarted my Computer and everything still good until Comodo firewall installed new updates then same error returned.
Then I discovered that SecurityHealthService service not running after startup so I run it manually and I can open Windows Defender Security Center GUI.
But unfortunately I must run it manually every time after restart.
I think that Comodo firewall prevents SecurityHealthService from start automatic at startup time.
After restart I find the service with this status:
Get-Service|where {$_.Name -eq “SecurityHealthService” } | fl *

After restart I found these events in Event log:
