Windows 10: Firewall & Network Protection

We updated our application that runs Windows updates on our domain, and it is starting to update our computers. In doing so, we are starting to get warnings on all of our computers. It is an extreme nuisance since it pops up with an audible tone about every 10-15 seconds. We have all the Firewalls turned off on our domain, so we are aware that it is turned off.


This never happened before we corrected our issue with updates, so I'm not sure what is now causing it. I created a GPO to turn off all Windows Security Notifications, just to see if that would resolve the symptom while we research the cause, but that didn't seem to help. We have had a few that have stopped the pop-up, but we don't know why. Just looking for a little direction. I can't believe we are the only ones that have seen this.

Windows Firewall blocks App Store from downloading new apps

Hi,

Let's try to check if the app store you're referring to if it's really blocked by Windows Firewall. See these steps:

• Open Windows Firewall from the taskbar >
  Firewall & network protection > Allow an app through firewall.
• A new window will show up containing the list of the apps that ca be allowed through Firewall.
• Look for the app you want to be accessed, and make sure that the Domain, Private and Public are ticked. That would allow the app store to be accessed.

Let us know what happens after doing the suggestion.
