Do you know if this is a regression? Did these collectors previously work on 2012? If so, what was the latest version you know works on 2012?

From examining the code, the firewall collector is likely running into this exception from the WindowsFirewallHelper library:

https://github.com/falahati/WindowsFirewallHelper/blob/3ff11894c12cc76ff1f769577a1ad1697882959f/WindowsFirewallHelper/FirewallManager.cs#L15-37

Similarly, The user account collector uses the System.Management library which I believe is the line throwing this there.

For the Service Collector it appears that the .NET Framework version you have installed on Windows is not new enough. Installing 4.8 might resolve the issues with the Service and User collector.
