Services Error 1068 Windows 10
Windows runs a lot of programs in the background as Services. Some Windows Services depend on another service to work. It is similar to how one department in a company need help of another department to complete its job. When a service fails with an error message — The dependency service or group failed to start, it means that a related service is not running or has failed to start. In this post, we are looking at various scenarios, and show you how to resolve this issue.
How to find dependencies of a Windows Service
To find the Dependencies of a Windows Service, you need to open Windows Services Manager, select the service in question, right-click on it, and select Properties. Switch to the Dependencies tab. Here you can see a list of services on which this service depend and other services which depend on this service.

Finally something works and doesn't require a complete OS re-installation. I was so afraid of that since Asus doesn't backup a physical copy of the Recovery manager in the hard drive, and somehow my Backup discs (6 discs, waste of my DVD :O) don't work at all after spending an hour burning them.
What happened was I used RegTweaker to do a registry cleanup on my Win7, my computer did work faster but I lost my WLan service, and no matter what I did nothing worked, until I tripped over your post! I've read over 50 websites/forum pages, and tried everything possibly suggested and none of them worked.
I have tried:
1) Microsoft Winsock32 Fix
2) Replacing Winsock dll
3) Netsh wlan with set yes command
4) Netsh reset catalog command
5) LSP Fix.exe
6) Right click 'Manage' on Computer and enabling everything linked to WLAN + dependencies to 'Automatic'
I spent 8 hours and none of the above worked. Apparently loads of people have the same issue after using a Registry cleaner. It's tried, tested and proven. I have done registry cleanup on 2 computers and next thing I know on restart is that WLAN Service went AWOL. My first suspicion went to a missing or corrupted Winsock, but I never thought a simple change to 2 files in the register would solve the problem. Your chunk of text was scary to look at at the beginning but I was so desperate I was willing to try anything and it really paid off. Microsoft should pay you man! Their stupid suggestions don't work. For those like me, I'll break down the instructions for you:
Step 1: Click START button
Step 2: In the Search area, type 'regedt32' (of course don't include the '), right click on the search result and 'Run as Administrator'.
Step 3: Click on 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE', should expand out to a list of stuff
Step 4: Next choose 'SYSTEM', should expand again
Step 5: Choose 'CurrentControlSet', expands again
Step 6: Choose 'Services', expands to a super large list of stuff
Step 7: Click on 'Dhcp', the right window will show the files in that folder
Step 8: Double click on 'DependOnService'
Step 9: Delete all the words in text area, except 'Afd', and click OK. You are done here
Step 10: Next under 'Services', look for 'EapHost', this should be a few folders below Dhcp Step 11: Same thing, double click on the file 'DependOnService'
Step 12: Delete everything in the text are and click OK. You are done.
Now, close everything and RESTART WINDOWS. Your WLan should be back and working once your computer starts. Hope this saves you like it saved me. Thanks to original poster for the wonderful resolution. Your post was almost too obscure to find, but I'm glad this is SOLVED! I'll be spreading the word around to save people from the constant agony of WLAN SVC going balistic every time after a registry cleanup.'
Now then..as I was about to wipe the blooming machine anyway, I thought 'what the ****', and just did the 12 steps without even a reg. backup.. AND IT FREAKING WORKED!!!!!
