    What is the maximum length of time that incoming Internet traffic can be blocked completely...


    Good morning I have to decide to take this drastic step because every three or four months I revert to my computer's default settings with the loss of personal files I delete everything for security reasons after critical crashes or after discovering a hidden Default.rdp rpd? file in the Documents folder, or phishing me for digital certificates, copies of file encryption keys. unlock codes for files, folders, drives. I've had enough. Windows Defender is failing. Paid security programs are failing. And how can they not fail when passwords to services and tasks are very weak lowercase,

    :)

    Pin length maximum to low

    I've found a solution.

    A Windows-update my changed the default policy about maximum PIN-Length.

    It can be fixed by applying a defined rule inside the Local Group Policy Editor.

    Step by Step:

    1. Open the Local Group Policy Editor.

    2. Go to Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\System\PIN Complexity

    3. Change Maximum PIN Length to disabledThis solution worked in my case I hope it could help someone else as well.

    Monitoring incoming and outgoing network traffic separately?

    Is there a tool that will tell me the total quantity of outgoing and incoming network traffic on a Windows 10 machine for each app, without lumping the incoming and outgoing traffic together, and which will count ethernet traffic as well as wireless traffic? I have noticed from my ISP's records that I have at least several hundred MB of uploads per day, even on days when I haven't been using any kind of video chat or conferencing, and I want to know what is responsible for that.

    Using version 1909 and about to upgrade to 2004.

    What is the maximum length of time that incoming Internet traffic can be blocked completely...

    Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.

    Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

    Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond What is the maximum length of time that incoming Internet traffic can be blocked completely... :) Best regards.


    And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.
