Windows Firewall Control 6.28.0.0 – Free Network Security

Windows Firewall Control strengthens firewall capabilities and provides convenient access to commonly used Windows Firewall features. It includes advanced security settings, making it a reliable firewall management tool for advanced users.

Windows Firewall Control sits in the system tray and provides an easy, intuitive way to control the native firewall without navigating complicated menus and settings. This is a core benefit of using this essential Windows Firewall management tool.

Windows Firewall Control is entirely free to use. Furthermore, registered users receive an exclusive learning mode that provides useful notifications about blocked outgoing connections, further empowering them with fine-grained control over their security as they use this powerful Windows Firewall management tool.

It is important to note that Windows Firewall Control does not filter network packets or manage connections—it only extends firewall functionality. Instead, it functions as a powerful front end for the native Windows Firewall and offers four filtering modes that can be switched instantly with a single mouse click, improving usability.

Low Filtering – Outgoing connections that don’t match a rule are allowed. You can block the programs you do not need to prevent 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, preventing any attempts to connect to or from your computer.
No Filtering: Windows Firewall is turned off. Avoid using this setting unless another firewall is running on your computer.
