- New: The profile displayed in WFC is updated now even if the user changes the
settings from outside of WFC (e.g.: Control Panel applet, netsh or WFwAS mmc).
- New: The restore profile set in the Profiles tab is reverted now even if the state
of Windows Firewall is modified from outside of WFC.
- New: Added a new confirmation dialog when the user switches from Main Panel to
No Filtering profile.
- New: The tray icon will display a balloon tip if the profile is High Filtering at
program start-up to inform the user that the network connections are disabled until
profile is manually switched.
- Updated: Secure Boot was changed to only set High Filtering on system shutdown when
it is enabled. From now on, the user has to switch manually the profile at system
start-up if this option is enabled in order to enable network connections. The old
implementation had very unpredictable results and did not work always correctly.
- Updated: The logging was updated to provide more detailed messages.
- Updated: Event Viewer launched from the Tools tab will open by default the WFC
subcategory.
- Removed: The confirmation dialog that is displayed when a new rule is created was
removed. From this version, the confirmation dialog is displayed only when a new rule
is created from shell context menu.
- Fixed: High Filtering profile can not be switched off in certain circumstances and
"Core Networking
- Block all inbound/outbound connections" rules can not be removed.
- Fixed: Temporary Rules are not deleted at WFC restart if Secure Boot is enabled
and the computer is restarted.
- Fixed: Last used path is not remembered when exporting a partial policy file.
- Fixed: The toolbox horizontal size is not saved when Rules Panel window is closed.
- Fixed: Multiple rules can be merged even if the selected rules are defined for
different protocols. This is not allowed anymore.
- Fixed: Properties dialog of a rule does not appear in the taskbar and if the dialog
is minimized, the user can't close Rules Manager from taskbar context menu.
- Fixed: When viewing inbound connections in Connections Log, if the user wants to
quickly create a new rule without customizing it, the rule is created for outbound
direction instead of inbound.
- Fixed: Uninstall dialog appears in taskbar but the dialog is not focused and the
user has to activate the window manually in order to see it.
