Cannot start the SharePoint 2010 Administration Service service after Windows update

We had an issue where our windows team did the server patching upgrade and next day SP admin service did not start. Below is the resolution how to make it work.

Resolution:-
Go to start - gpedit.msc to open the local policy editor
  1. Under the Computer Configuration node in the Local Group Policy Editor, double-click Policies.
  2. Double-click Windows Settings, double-click Security Settings, and then double-click Public Key Policies.
  3. In the details pane, double-click Certificate Path Validation Settings.
  4. Click the Network Retrieval tab, click to select the Define these policy settings check box, and then click to clear the Automatically update certificates in the Microsoft Root Certificate Program (recommended) check box.
  5. Click OK, and then close the Local Group Policy Editor.
 Try to restart the service again it should start without any issues. You have to update all the servers where this patching was performed.
