Windows 10: Windows Defender Advanced Firewall Policy Audit

Hi Community,I found this post https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/e209a8d7-119a-4e5f-819a-f4f323e1777a/auditing-windows-firewall-rules?forum=ITCGand wanted to share an audit script I made. Since it was "archived", I'm posting here. This is designed to make an exportable table with a resultant set of firewall policies from both GPO and Local. It helped me find which policy was wrong as I could compare our custom rules with the stock rules. Run the script on a machine where GP is being applied. Some of the code was borrowed from other forums dll string extractor#The tw

Advance Audit Policies are not being applied via GPO

Advanced Audit Policy Configuration inclusive of System Audit Policies like Account Logon, Account Management, DS Access, Logon/Logoff, etc are not being applied on the servers when GPO is implemented for the same.

We have additional settings applied via same GPO which is successfully applied.

Hi Faye,

Third-party antivirus programs usually have their own uninstallers provided by the software developer. We suggest checking the developer's website or contacting their support team for assistance with uninstalling their program. After fully uninstalling the
third-party antivirus software, you may turn on Windows Defender by following these steps:

• Click Start.
• Type Windows Defender Security Center and press Enter.
• Click Firewall and network protection.
• Click Private (discoverable) network and click On.
• Click Public (non-discoverable) network and click On.

Let us know if you have any other concerns about Windows Defender.
