Try this it worked for me
Run regedit.exe with administrator privileges & navigate to this key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

Create a new string value & name it Evorim. Double-click on the new name to open the Value Data field & insert "C:\Program Files (x86)\Evorim\Free Firewall\freefirewall.exe"

The last 2 days FreeFirewall didn"t autostart anymore after proceeding the recent update Windows 8.1, though the reg key given above is present (with following option --autostart)

Even starting via shortcut start menu doesn"t work. I found out, that it works by setting the shortcut to "run as admin". So I"ve set the program itself to "run as admin"
[file "..\FreeFirewall.exe" via right-click - properties - compatibility - settings for all users - checkbox run program as admin]

The program is doing it on my system also now. It only started after last windows update.
The fixes described above don"t work on my system (Win-10 64bit).
I also have realtek audio & Win update keeps breaking that also.

I noticed 10 minutes ago that freeFirewall is not running in try. I did the upgrade, but the program still won"t run
