    Hello,

    I want to delete old rules created by EIS Firewall, but I can't see in WindowsApps if the path of the file exists
    I have asked in the Eset Forum the same question and they told me not to delete them, but now Is a mess with all those old rules,

    i.e
    C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.WindowsStore_12101.1001.14.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe\WinStore.App.exe
    C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.WindowsStore_12005.1001.1.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe\WinStore.App.exe

    What do you experts suggest me?

    Thanks
    Camelia

    When Win Store apps update including itself, the version number; e.g. xxxxxxxxxx_12101.1001.14.0_x64_xxxxxxxxxx, is increased in value. It is safe to delete all firewall rules for a given Win Store app except for the latest; i.e. highest valued version number.
