    Odd paths in windows firewall


    For some reason, when looking up the rules in my firewall. Some of the rules have odd paths. See below. I do have an F: drive, but these files are now located on a K: drive. So I have now idea what the "F:0" or "F:2" is about. Any ideas?

    Odd Inbound rules listed in Windows Firewall with Advanced Security

    I didn't find a solution, but I reset my pc and I no longer have it listed in the firewall. According to a post I made on reddit, it doesn't actually mean anything and is actually mojibake.
    Here is the post I made asking for help on it. I don't actually know what program the rule was for, but I disabled
    it and nothing broke to my knowledge.

    Odd Inbound rules listed in Windows Firewall with Advanced Security

    I've already scanned the computer several times. I'm assuming it's something leftover from a previous malware removal, as no threats are found currently.
