Good afternoon! I have the Pro version of Avira, I'm trying to block applications, but I can't. I have already checked all the options and still the chosen applications do not block.

  Hello Luciana.

  Which special application you want to get blocked?. Or what exactly didn't work?.

  So are you able to activate the applock? And did you create a security pattern for it to unlock?

  Hello,

  I would also like to understand how to block an application.

  In the Avira Firewall Manager, when I select menu Programs, I have the option to add a program, and then have to select/unselect the Profiles "Domain", "Private" and "Public". What are these profiles? What is the impact if I deselect these profiles?

  Once I have set up a program, in the menu Rules I see the application with more details:

  - Direction Inbound: what does that mean? Is all traffic blocked or allowed to go inbound to that application? 

  - Can I update an existing rule?

  If I add a new a Program Rule, I can select application name and program path:

  - What is the purpose of the State (Active)?

  - What is the purpose of the Direction (Inbound/Outbound)?

  - What is the purpose of the Action (Allow/Deny)?

  Thanks,

  Lourens

  Hello Lourens,

  It sounds like that you're using an outdated Avira version as we don't have any firewall manager for a couple of years. If that's the case, sadly, this version isn't supported anymore.

  Please tell us more details about the product which you are using.

  Best,

  Hi Arthur,

  I just found out that the Firewall can now be configured in W10, so no need for 3rd party app.

  Thanks!
