I've noticed that sometimes the Secure Profile option is automatically disabled, by Windows Update for example. I think the most recent Windows...
I reverted to 1709, way too many issues with 1803 (unrelated to WFC).
No filters, just default settings + Auto refresh and Blocked connections only.
Some more details from the log: Reading Security log failed. Exception: System.ArgumentException: Index 31927 is out of bounds. at...
Yes, I have those too. WFC 5.3.1.0 works normally. Clean 1803 install.
Answer is on page 164 (=you can't).
Thank you for the update, it's a very nice gesture. Can't wait to know more about your new "July/Summer Control" software! I've encountered no...
That's a cool tip imuade, thanks - although I'm more worried about other programs and/or malware tampering with the WF rather than Windows Update.
Every website goes down every now and then, usually for maintenance. It's quite common on Sundays. Perhaps the new product(s) are being prepared...
Good to know, thanks. Which keys are those? I'm not seeing something relevant on HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\BiniSoft.org\Windows Firewall Control.
You'd rather die and WFC to resume development? I guess that's generous. :D
From the manual (High Filtering): "All outbound and inbound connections are blocked. This profile blocks all attempts to connect to and from your...
No, WFC is not just about ease of use. It also "shields" the WF, which is even more important.
From what I've gathered, 5.3.0.0 can work fine with Store Apps and Secure Rules enabled, too. You just need to manually check the rules every now...
Is this new or not? https://www.avira.com/en/support-for-home-knowledgebase-detail/kbid/1623
WFC does its update checks at 66.198.240.5, which seems to belong to A2 Hosting. Emsisoft processes: a2guard, a2service.exe etc. Huge stretch, I...
Congratulations alexandrud and good luck on your new job! Really curious about the new owners... hope it's the ones I currently use. :) Yandex...
I am trying 5.3.0.0 again with Windows 10. Just a question: if I create a Store app rule the way it is described in the manual here: User...
From the version 5.1.0.0 changelog: The WFC recommended rules contain now some inbound rules required for accessing the computers from the local...
I see that you wrote "U - @{..." which probably means you will keep this rule as disabled. Note that when Store Apps update themselves, their path...
Yes, to be exact in Windows 10's "Settings", not the old UI Control Panel. Typing "Add or remove programs" in the Start Menu will reveal it...
For those of you that used 5.1.0.0 or later, and now want to get back to 5.0.2.0 to make Store Apps work again: you are probably missing some @...
Do you seriously believe it's a "5-minute job" to just "add a checkbox"? Give the developer a break. It is clear that "Secure Rules" has been...
I'll agree that if you manage to put everything in a single, compact window (that fits in lower resolutions too) it's much better than having to...
Ok, many thanks. I'll probably revert to 5.0.2.0 for now. Hope you can find a way. I know it's not an ideal situation and most people probably...
