Windows Firewall Control (WFC) by BiniSoft.org

You can use whatever you want to delay it. You can also manually start it when you want.

Check the experimental feature described here. It will help you.

 

The auto-creating rule works, but WFC can not detect ramdisk? WFC detects the path as a device and I can not really allow temp folder.



That silly app creates an auto-generated folder and on top of it, if it gets blocked, it shuts down and I have to restart the game to launch it again. So I have to disable the firewall, copy the path once it launches and then enable the firewall.

 

Thank you very much! I'll try it.

Thank you for the explanation aldist. Much appreciated.

 

Hi, I well aware that there is a hotkey to "Toggle between Low & Medium Profile".

But is it possibility to have another hotkey to toggle between High & medium profile?
The reason was I am using secure boot. By using a hotkey would be easier than a few clicks (sometimes could accidentally wrong click).

Thanks in advance.

 

WFC has no such option. But you can achieve your goal another way, disable Secure Boot, automate the disabling of the network adapter at shutdown! (shutdown!) of the computer. Now when the computer boots, the network adapter will be disabled, which is the same as Secure Boot, the Internet will be disabled until you manually enable the network adapter with a one-click .bat placed on the taskbar.

 

Hello Masters

I have two computers connected via LAN, one has (VNC Server) and the other has (VNC Client).
When the firewall (Windows Firewall Control) is turned off, the connection works, when it is turned on, the connection cannot be established.

If firewall is turned on, it does not show that the VNC Server application is blocked.

OS: Win10
Software VNC Server: TightVNC for Windows (Version 2.8.81)


Isn't it because the app in question is running without a path?

How is it possible that the path to the file is not visible in the application?

Thanks!

 

CurrPorts shows all system applications without path, but in WFC you have to specify path in rules for application.
Examine the WFC log - blocked connections, and create appropriate rules. In your case, you will need allow rules for incoming connections as well.

 

I'm using Netlimiter 5 and it does have a "firewall" called a "Blocker". steam.exe wants to connect to internet. No internet, please run again.
When using Netlimiter blocker, it istantly asking for steam.exe outbound connection, while sendin to steam.exe to "pause".
Alex, please please implement this feature to WFC. I'm not only one that suffers this behavior of WFC.

 

You can "pause" connections only in kernel mode (i.e. using Fwps{Pend|Complete}Operation() in driver).

 

Even if I enter the path to the file "C:\Program Files\TightVNC\tvnserver.exe" the problem is the same, The connection is established only when WFC is fully switched off, I am starting to think that it is a bug. Can someone please try this?

 

Have you OTHER blocking rule(s) which could be influencing that connection? Because blocking rules have higher priority than allowing rules ...

 

You can use System Informer's Firewall tab to see which filter rule blocked the program's connection.

THX infor for dump test!

EDIT:
OK, I'm a total idiot! :-D

I forgot that the created rules are not IN/OUT (together) It was enough to create a rule only for incoming connections and everything works
Thank you all for your help, I figured it out from the dump log!

 

Hey, no problem - it works now, that's the important thing

 

It often happens that the problem lies on top, and you stubbornly do not see it.

 

Hi! I've been using WFC since forever I think, I just discovered that there was this forum so I wanted to say 2 things: 1) Thanks man, awesome work 2) Recently discovered by accident what I know found out is an experimental feature, the auto adding of rules, I set a few in every PC I work with "googledrivefs.exe" "whatsapp.exe" for instance since they update regularly and with changing paths, today when I found a little time to do some maintenance at home, I wanted to change the LOW filtering profile to MEDIUM finally, I have it like this because this is the PC my younger uses to play and I'm annoyed to come and make a rule every time roblox updates (almost daily) but to my surprise it does not work!

You can see the autocreated google and xbox rules, but for the life of me I can't get Roblox to play ball... I tried with and without notifications, and nothing, any Idea is much appreciated... back to LOW profile for now, thanks!

 

Maybe because your application runs from %AppData% instead of /Program Files/? The option is still experimental.

 

The problem here is that WFC does not create an auto allow rule for ROBLOXPLAYERLAUNCHER.EXE? Or that the game does not work even if you create (manually) an allow rule for it?

 

If I create the rule it woks perfectly, that's how I did it until got tired and switched profile to low.
I posted the capture because two of three rules where created so no actual problem with WFC creating rules either, it just seems to be failing to do so only for roboxplayerlauncher.exe OR the folder
