Bitdefender Firewall blocking Minecraft Dungeons
in Protection
Greetings,
For the first time in years I have run into an issue with Bitdefender.
It seems that the firewall is blocking something in Minecraft Dungeons.
I have tried adding the exes for the game:
C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.Lovika_1.4.6.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe\Dungeons.exe C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.Lovika_1.4.6.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe\Dungeons\Binaries\Win64\Dungeons.exe
But Bitdefender gives the following error message:
Invalid Application Path
I suspect the issue is with the WindowsApps directory as I can't see any other reason for the paths to be invalid.
If anyone knows of a work around (that isn't to simply turn off the firewall) I would be extremely grateful!
In any ways, thanks for reading!

Hi Member,
Instead of disabling the firewall you can add an exception of the game in the firewall and set it to allow.

Hope this helps.

As mentioned in my original post, I can't add the game in the firewall as it gives me the "Invalid Application Path" error message.
Just an update.
I have done some digging and it seems to be an issue with games installed with the Xbox App.
For some reason I don't have any permissions on files installed from the Xbox App, even if I go to Properties>Security>Advanced it shows the owner as "Unable to display current owner.".
So seems that the issue isn't with Bitdefender, but actually the Xbox App.
I have submitted a new Feedback post to the Microsoft Feedback Hub on the issue.
