Windows 10: Hey, is this winrmsrv.exe safe to allow in the firewall?

Regardless it being from microsoft, I could not find so much info about it in the Internet. It seems to be some Remote related service, but it was strange to show up all of nothing after I starting my computer today.






Thanks in advance.

Windows Firewall - how to allow access

I believe that my firewall is blocking access to Family Tree Maker / Ancestry / MacKiev SYNC - I can't see any reference to any of these names in the allowed list ....

I can't see any way of adding to the allowed list

Any suggestions ?

 

Can't add windows 10 store apps to firewall settings (allow an app through firewall).

The apps use to appear on the list of apps allowed through the windows firewall but I reset the firewall settings and the apps were removed. Now there is not way to add the windows store apps back because you have to point to their .exe files which are hidden/encrypted.
Is there a way to add them back the list of allowed apps through the firewall?
