Changes in Windows Firewall Control 3.9.1.4:
- New: Added support for selecting IGMP, IPv6 and GRE protocols in Properties dialog when a rule is configured.
- Improved: Added the possibility to recreate the system recommended rules without reinstalling the program. On the Policy tab, press on the Restore Default text.
- Fixed: If the user unchecks “Disable the ability of other…” checkbox, creates a rule from WFwAS, and then enables back this feature, the rule from WFwAS is deleted, even if it was created while this feature was disabled.
- Fixed: The layout of Location items was changed in Properties dialog of a rule to fit long translation strings for some languages.
