Windows Firewall Control 5.0.0.1

Recommended Posts

Microsoft Windows have already built-in default, free and powerful firewalls, but unfortunately, they lack a simple interface to define own simple rules and can be difficult sometimes to configure them the right way. Windows Firewall Control is a nifty little application which extends the functionality of the Windows Firewall and provides quick access to the most frequent options of Windows Firewall. It runs in the system tray and allows user to control the native firewall easily without having to waste time by navigating to the specific part of the firewall. Windows Firewall Control offers four filtering modes which can be switched with just a mouse click. WFC is free to use, registered users will get the advantage of learning mode which provides notifications for outgoing blocked connections.

Thanks to Astron for the update.

Imo, this is the best windows firewall controller. Simplistic (without any fancy design elements), but responsive gui. Lite on resources. Easy to use & configure (recommended only for advanced users & above).

I checked it, it works at my end =O I can make a mirror if you want =)

 

Edit: Mirror added

It's all about a missing slash / in the sharecode.

should be like follows intead.

Sharecode[?]: /files/7527338/WFCPortable_5.0.0.1.paf.exe.html
Mirror:
Sharecode[?]: /download/d9e80085c082c5f4bf3938a26e8c1a20/WFCPortable_5.0.0.1.paf.exe

Hi, after read your reply I decided to delete all invalid rules but still doesn't work. It looks like you can't reproduce it Yeah, probably there still something wrong in my rules. Thank you.

Of course, all firewalls have the provision to blocks ads. (specifically aimed at amateurs.) :sneaky:

Sure, one can block/allow p2p completely (have set my copy for selective blocking of p2p traffic.)

I guess I'll just stick with my uBlock and my ipfilter file.
