    Cortana Connected Home Scenes and Rules are not working; cannot create Rule or Scene


    Cortana got updated and added "Rules" and "Scenes" under Connected Home section of the Notebook. Really cool, however both sections are not working - the "Create a scene" button does nothing and there is no button to create a Rule. The Support page for Cortana's Connected Home section is very poor in content, and has no reference to those new features: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4046777/control-smart-home-cortana. Anyone was able to create Smart Home Rules or Scenes?

    :)

    Windows Firewall: Doesn't show blocking rules

    Hello!

    Today I've blocked all connections of a program by creating a outbound rule in Windows Firewall. However, I now wish to remove it. The problem: I can't find that newly created rule anywhere in the list. The rule does take an effect, since deactivating the
    Firewall lets the program run properly. I can only see rules in the list that "allow" stuff, but not those who block things.

    What I have tried so far:

    - All filters set to "Show all" within the Firewall

    - Created the same rule again, doesn't show up

    - Created a rule that allows the program, shows up

    Any solutions?

    Windows 10 Home page scenes.

    Windows 10 Home page scenes. Can Microsoft consider inserting the name of the location where each scene occurs when the windows 10 home page appears.

    I'm sure many people would be interested in knowing where the scene is located.

    Thank you

    Windows Firewall: Doesn't show blocking rules

    Hi!

    1) It was an .exe of a game.

    2) I was creating an outbound rule, so it was something like: New rule > Program > Block connections > All 3 boxes (Domain, Private, Public) ticked > Named it "GRW" > Done

    3) After creating the rule, I wasn't able to connect to the game services when I started the game. I deactivated the Firewall and I was able to connect to them. Tested this several times. The rule itself didn't appear on the list though. I made the rule
    twice, still it didn't. Then I created a rule that would "allow" the same .exe and it did appear on the list.

    As mentioned, there is not a single blocking rule in my list. Everything was done within the "Advanced Firewall Setting", which looks like this:
