    Is this advisable for an average skilled user or is the native firewall ok by itself?

    Why can I not stay connected to my homegroup?

    What Firewall are you using? Is it the Built in Windows Firewall?

    If so, see Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Windows Firewall.

    There are several options down the left hand side of that page that you can try, including "Restore defaults".

    You could also test with the Firewall turned off.

    Windows firewall control

    Myself and numerous others here are running with Windows Defender and Windows Firewall. Some, maybe all, use Malwarebytes along side. I do know it's working well for me.

    Much of your choice will revolve around your personal browsing habits, email reception, and just plain comfort level and confidence in what you're doing.

    The default Windows Firewall changes rules at will and does not block outbound by default.

    WFC (from Binisoft/Sphinx/Glasswire/etc) will let you control, which software you want to allow.

    Windows firewall control

    The Default Windows Firewall does permit the end user to create rules and they do in fact work.

    Free VPNs usually allow only a limited amount of data for free, yet they call it "free". *Rolleyes
