Flight simulator 2020 (UWP app) on Xbox Game Pass for PC is STILL being blocked by the firewall. Disabling BT FW let's it through of course.

Borderlands 3 Epic exe LAN Play is being blocked despite having FW rules to allow LAN play to a specific IP address; this worked in previous version.

What is going on with the Firewall lately? What's the point in having a firewall that doesn't work as it should?

Disabling vEthernet (or changing metrics) has no effect, so it doesn't seem related to that.

Please advise.

    Sent them an email, they said they're working on it.

    Was this reported as part of the beta testing? Not sure how the per process IP whitelisting (BL3) slipped through.

  • Cannot believe Bitdefender cannot fix the games issues? you can add AOE III definitive edition to the list of blocked until you turn off firewall.
