Get an Administrative Powershell Session and then run the following

# Enable Echo Request
Get-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "File and Printer Sharing (Echo Request - ICMPv4-In)" | Enable-NetFirewallRule

# Allow ping from any host instead of just localsubnet
Get-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "File and Printer Sharing (Echo Request - ICMPv4-In)" | Set-NetFirewallRule -RemoteAddress "Any"
