I'd be tempted to put a https://puppet.com/docs/puppet/5.5/types/notify.html
into your code temporarily to ensure that it's being enforced.
Try running `puppet resource service puppet ensure=running` in powershell
and see if you can switch it on manually from there.
Could there be some other agent or group policy that is shutting the puppet
service down?
