Windows Firewall Control is a powerful application which extends the functionality of the Windows Firewall and provides quick access to the most frequent options of Windows Firewall. It runs in the system tray and allows user to control the native firewall easily without having to waste time by navigating to the specific part of the firewall. This is the best tool to manage the native firewall from Windows 8.1, 8, 7, Vista and Server 2008. Windows Firewall Control offers four filtering modes which can be switched with just a mouse click:
High Filtering - All outbound and inbound connections are blocked. This setting blocks all attempts to connect to and from your computer.
Medium Filtering - Outbound connections that do not match a rule are blocked. Only the programs that you allow can initiate outbound connections.
Low Filtering - Outbound connections that do not match a rule are allowed. The user can block the programs he doesn't want to allow initiating outbound connections.
No Filtering - Windows Firewall is turned off. Avoid using this setting unless you have another firewall running on your computer.

What's new in version 4.4.1.0 (06.03.2015)

- Improved: The notification dialog was modified to accept larger language strings.
A line splitter was added which can be used to modify the width of the content.
- Fixed: A new notification is not displayed for a blocked connection if an existing
rule have set the remote ports and the remote IP addresses.
- Fixed: Local ports are not taken into consideration when the Notifications system
decides if a new notification should be displayed or not.
- Fixed: The path displayed in the notification dialog for the files executed from
a RAM disk is not resolved. Added support for resolving paths from RAM drives.
- Fixed: Sometimes, Windows Firewall determines the path for some programs with the
old 8.3 filename style. It is impossible to create a new rule from the Notification
dialog nor from the Connections Log when such paths are received. Added support for
short names used in paths.
- Fixed: Double click on the data grid scroll bar in Connections Log and New Rules
Wizard views, opens the Properties dialog when an entry is selected.
- Fixed: When an entry is selected in New Rules Wizard, Enter key moves the selection
on the next row instead of opening the Properties dialog.
- Fixed: Toolbox buttons from Rules Panel have truncated labels even if the toolbox
area is enlarged.
- Fixed: The installer/updater gives an unhandled exception if .NET Framework 4.5
is not installed on the machine.
- Fixed: The unlock button from the Notification dialog is disabled when the program
is locked and a new notification is displayed. The user must open Main Panel to unlock
the program.
- Fixed: Old self signed certificates used until WFC 4.0.2.2 are not removed from
the computer even if they are not used anymore. Please answer YES if at the end of
the installation/update you are asked: "Do you want to DELETE the following
certificate from the Root Store?" with the subject "BiniSoft.org".
