Windows 7 firewall

Bitdefender Antivirus free is installed on two Windows 7 HP laptops and is working very well. There is no other installed security software.

I have disabled Windows Firewall. Is this OK or should it be enabled?

Thank you.

Hi @jackiemarie

Since the Bitdefender free version does not have a Firewall and Windows 7 has a very competent Firewall, by all means for security sake, keep it enabled.

Kind regards,

I would leave it enabled.

Also because the Widows Firewall from version 7 of Windows is a valid firewall. 😉
