To conclude, Windows Firewall Notifier comes in handy for users who need to monitor all the outgoing connections and available services, as well as view real-time information regarding the Firewall rules. Also, the closed connections (marked with the orange color) will be displayed in the main window for a few seconds before disappearing.īy accessing the Rules section, you can preview all the available Windows Firewall rules, as well as manually create new ones or remove them if required. The main window displays all of the available processes and active connections along with some basic information such as ‘Protocol’, ‘Local address’, ‘Local port’ and ‘Creation Time’. Additionally, Windows Firewall Notifier blocks all the apps even if you disable WFN notifications. When you launch the program for the first time, you can enable the notifications, as well as create a blocking rule in order to strengthen some security settings. By default, the Windows operating system does not block any of the outgoing connections, meaning that your entire computer is exposed to threats and that any program you have installed on your PC (especially those apps downloaded from untrusted websites) can send information to unauthorized sources without your consent. Windows Firewall Notifier extends the default Windows embedded firewall behavior, allowing to handle outgoing connections, and displaying (almost) real-time information about the current connections.
