Windows Firewall Control software extends the functionality of Windows Firewall ➤ Download Now!

Windows Firewall Control is a nifty little application that extends the performance of the Windows Firewall. Also, it provides fast access to essentially the most frequent options of Windows Firewall.

It runs within the system tray and allows users to control the native firewall simply. Without having to waste time by navigating to a particular part of the firewall.

It is free to use. Registered users will get the benefit of the learning mode which provides notifications for outgoing blocked connections.

Windows Firewall Control doesn’t filter any packets and doesn’t block or allow any connection. It offers 4 filtering modes. You can switch them with only a mouse click:

Low Filtering – Outgoing connections that don’t match a rule are allowed. You can block the programs you do not need to provoke outgoing connections.
Medium Filtering – Outgoing connections that don’t match a rule are blocked. Only programs you allow can provoke outgoing connections.
High Filtering – All outgoing connections are blocked. This setting blocks all attempts to connect to and out of your computer.
No Filtering – Windows Firewall is turned off. Avoid using this setting except you will have one other firewall running on your computer.
