Jenkins will no longer start as a Window Service after a symantec update to v14. It was working prior to this but I am not sure if this is related to the error.

When I attempt to start Jenkins as a service I receive the error:

 " Windows could not start the Jenkins service on Local Computer.

Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion"

When I try to start it using cmd using the command "jenkins.exe start"I get this error: 

"System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null.

Parameter name: path1

at System.IO.Path.Combine(String path1, Stringpath2)

at winsw.ServiceDescriptor..ctor()

at winsw.WrapperService.Run(String[] _args)

at winsw.WrapperService.Main(string[] args)"

Does anyone have any idea on how to fix this?

I tried using https://support.symantec.com/en_US/article.TECH193916.html

and I also tried creating a jenkins.exe.config file to prevent the firewall from blocking it
