    Windows Firewall doesn't alert on inbound connection


    Hi all,

    many years I use 3rd part firewall software but now I am back to Windows Firewall.

    When there is an inbound connection (a server that receive a connection from outside) Windows Firewall should notify and altert the user to accept (and make the rule) or decline the inbound connection.

    That is the behaviour that I know Windows Firewall should have and I remember in the Win XP times that it was so.

    Today I ran FILEZILLA FTP SERVER and I set it.

    I ran a client in my LAN to connect to the server... NO ALERT... CAN'T CONNECT.

    I ran another client (to be sure)... NO ALERT... CAN'T CONNECT.

    So I make myself the rule for the service and... IT'S CONNECTED!!!

    So firewall why didn't alert when it receive a connection???

    Thank you...

    :)

    Will Win10-1709 firewall failure be fixed?

    In "Control Panel":

    'Windows Firewall' > 'Advanced settings' > opens "Windows Firewall with Advanced Security" dialog.

    In "Windows Firewall with Advanced Security" dialog:

    'Windows Firewall with Advanced Security on Local Computer' (top frame of center panel) > 'Windows Firewall Properties" (link, at bottom of top frame of center panel) > opens "Windows Firewall with Advanced Security on Local Computer Pro..." dialog.

    In "Windows Firewall with Advanced Security on Local Computer Pro..." dialog:

    'Domain Profile' (tab) > 'Inbound connections:' Block (default) & 'Outbound connections:'
    Block.

    'Private Profile' (tab) > 'Inbound connections:' Block (default) & 'Outbound connections:'
    Block.

    'Public Profile' (tab) > 'Inbound connections:' Block (default) & 'Outbound connections:'
    Block.

    'Public Profile' (tab) > 'Inbound connections:' Block (default) & 'Outbound connections:'
    Block.

    ...and which profile is active (domain, private, or public)?

    For me... only the Private profile has outbound rules for Ping
