    Windows Firewall: Allow internal network / deny internet access


    Hi all,
    Been lurking here for years, but I finally need some direct help please.
    I have a need to allow a specific program to have internal network access, but disallow/deny that same program all internet access. I don't see any way to do this in the firewall settings. It seems like it's an all or nothing toggle. What am I missing?
    I'm using Malwarebytes Windows Firewall Control, which is just a fancy GUI for the built-in windows firewall.

    windows ver: 1909

    :)

  2. Allowing a Program Access to the Internet

    Hi Philip,

    A firewall is a software program or piece of hardware that helps screen out hackers, viruses, and worms that try to reach your computer over the Internet. Using Windows Firewall, you can allow programs to access the internet. To do so, creating a Firewall
    Rule is required. Start the Windows Firewall settings by clicking Start and searching for Firewall. Click the Windows Firewall app and not Windows Firewall with Advanced Security. The Windows Firewall screen shows you how the firewall is configured for both
    private networks and public networks. On the list of settings to the left, click “Allow an app or feature through Windows Firewall". The next view shows you a list of all the apps that are already allowed to communicate, and over what kinds of networks (private
    or public). If it’s the first time you’ve opened Windows Firewall, click the Change Settings button to give yourself permissions to make changes or add new apps. You’ll only need to do this once. To add a new app to the list, click “Allow another app”. In
    the Add an app window, browse for the app you want to allow network access to. Click the Network types button to specify whether you want to allow the app access on public or private networks (or both). Click Add when you’re done and that’s it. You’ve allowed
    the app through your firewall–you’ll see it show up on the list of allowed apps, and it should be allowed to use internet or network-related features.

    If further assistance is needed, we are here to help.

    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 ?

    Windows Firewall: Allow internal network / deny internet access

    Restraint trafic and applications to access internet with Firewall when connected with Dial Up SAT connexion

    Hi,

    To address this concern, we suggest that you follow these steps on how to block apps and programs from accessing network connection through Windows Firewall:

    • Open Control Panel and click System and Security.
    • On the Windows Firewall page, select Allow a program through Windows Firewall.
    • Uncheck the box to the left of the application names to disallow them from accessing network connection.
    • If other programs are not listed, just click Allow another program/app button to add them.

    Let us know how it goes.

    Thank you.
