in Firewall

Google drive is blocked by Bitfdefender Total Securitys Firewall, even though c:\program files\google\drive\googledrivesync.exe has been added under the application rules with all permissions set... what am I missing/doing wrong here?

    Hi m.4xx, and welcome,


    You may have to go for the shotgun approach and add it to AV exclusions as well, if you haven't already: http://forum.bitdefender.com/index.php?showtopic=35502


    And, or, also try enabling Paranoid Mode in Firewall settings, restart your PC, and try accessing your Google Drive account (docs) and see if you get a Firewall pop up to allow. Also consider the recommended Firewall settings: http://forum.bitdefender.com/index.php?showtopic=35496


    Hopefully, something here helps :)
