You didn't mention what operating system, but you should be able to run a batch file similar to this:
netsh firewall set opmode disable
netsh firewall set service type=fileandprint mode=enable profile=all
netsh advfirewall firewall set rule group=”network discovery” new enable=yes

I would use an online kscript and select "run a batch file" under the On Success portion of the Task.
I would also suggest to make sure the commands I posted work properly on a test machine before creating the kscript. - jknox 10 years ago-

Wouldn't this be better handled by Group Policy ?

This is pretty much unavoidable as you are calling command line utilities. The changes are likely to be recorded in the registry so if you capture the changes made by each script line then you can add them directly without running the utilities.

getting CMDs to run without the pop is a bit tricky.
I have a vbs that can call a CMD (or any other exe etc), but it always seems a bit wrong in my head, you might just aswell create a vbs that does it all, anyway....
here is the script, you need to change the objshell.run bit, to your target, the name of your CMD file, or any other exe.

' Declare Constants and Variables
Set objShell = CreateObject ("WScript.Shell")
objShell.Run "Firewall.cmd",0 , True
' Clean up
set objShell = Nothing
