    Disable UPnP without disabling Network discovery


    I want to disable UPnP because the port are being open without my notice. My modem does not allow disabling UPnP.
    When I search on Google, it just give me tutorial how to disable Network discovery. That's not what i want, because i use it. I want to disable UPnP on Windows so that it doesn't open the ports like IP cameras have option to disable UPnP.
    How do i do that?

    :)

    Turn On or Off Network Discovery in Windows 10


    Thank you. Of the 4 things they mentioned, only Function Discovery Resource Publication was enabled. I enabled the last two, but the DNT Client is disabled & the dropdown box is greyed out. I'm not sure how to enable it.
    • DNS Client
    • Function Discovery Resource Publication
    • SSDP Discovery
    • UPnP Device Host

    Disable Network Discovery?


    You do not want to disable Network Discovery. Otherwise you are going to break the Operating system. If it is set to Public on your private LAN, you need to reset it to Private.

    Disable UPnP without disabling Network discovery

    Cannot keep Network Discovery Enabled.

    Hi,

    Thank you for the response.

    I would suggest that you change the settings in the Firewall to allow Network discovery so that the Firewall stays On while allowing the Network discovery to be enabled.

    Follow the steps.

    a . Open Control panel.

    b. Small icons from the drop down.

    c. Click on Windows Firewall.

    d. Click on Allow programs or feature through Firewall.

    e. Scroll the list and check Network Discovery.

    If you need additional assistance then let us know.
