Select the target program. Name the Firewall rule. Right-click the Notepad app and select More — Run as Administrator. In the Android Mobile network settings, tap on Data usage.
Next, tap on Network access. Now you see a list of all your installed apps and checkmarks for their access to Mobile data and Wi-Fi. To block an app from accessing the internet, uncheck both boxes next to its name. Press Browse and, in the Open window, go to the location of the executable file that you want to block, select it, and press Open.
Then, click or tap Next. Now you need to choose the action that you want the firewall to take. To do this now, you need to use the Windows 10 and 11 Settings menu. Open the Settings menu by clicking the cogwheel icon in the Start Menu. Select the Gaming section of the Settings menu.
Navigate to the Game Mode section in the sidebar. Click to toggle Game Mode on or off. On your Android phone or tablet, open the Google Play Store app. Turn on Screen Time. Set a passcode to make the blocking more effective.
Between your computer and the Internet or any other external network stands a firewall. Designed to allow legitimate traffic into your computer and keep unauthorized traffic out, a properly configured firewall protects you from the thousands of attackers and malicious programs trying to gain access to your PC.
Both Windows Vista and Windows 7 include a firewall called Windows Firewall, which is turned on by default; you should turn it off only if you are using another third-party firewall.
Understanding these basics will reduce your vulnerability and allow you to tweak Windows Firewall to suit your needs. Step 1 You can configure two types of networks: private home and workplace networks and public airport, library, or other networks open to the public. You will see status and settings reports displayed for both types of networks here. This tab is on the left side of the window.
Click New Rule…. It's in the upper-right corner of the window. Doing so opens a new window in which you'll create your Firewall rule. Check the "Program" box. You'll find this option at the top of the page. Click Next. It's at the bottom of the window. Select a program. Before you can block a program, you'll need to select the program in order to find its path: Check the "This program path" box and click Browse Click This PC on the left side of the window.
Scroll down and double-click your hard drive's name e. Double-click the Program Files folder. If the program you want to block is elsewhere, go to the program's folder instead. Find the folder for your program, then double-click the folder.
Select the program file by clicking it once. Copy the program's path. This is necessary because Windows will restructure the path to the file once you open the file in Firewall, thus breaking your outbound rule. You can bypass this problem by manually pasting in the path to the file. Click Open. It's in the bottom-right corner of the window. Replace the path before the app's name with your copied one.
Leaving the app's name and extension at the end of the path is crucial, as failing to do so will leave you with a rule that doesn't block anything. Click Next three times. This button is in the lower-right side of the window on each page. Doing so takes you to the final page.
Enter a name for your rule. Type whatever you want to name your rule into the top text box on the page. For example, if you're blocking Google Chrome on your computer, you might name your rule "Chrome Block" here. Click Finish. Doing so saves and applies your rule; from now until you delete or disable the rule, your program will not be able to access the Internet.
Method 2. Click Allow an app or feature through Windows Firewall. This link is at the top-left side of the Firewall window. Click Change settings. Below is a link to our Technet site. This particular link is for Enterprise Networking with Windows Vista. You may find better support with this issue on the Technet site.
Should anyone else have suggestions, please post them here. I'll continue to research this as well. I must admit, you're the 1st person that's said they want to block all traffic from a workstation and modify the Firewall to allow certain ports, programs, etc from "outbound" traffic. How satisfied are you with this reply?
