A script that lets you add all EXE`s from a folder to the firewall and block connections both Inbound and Outbound.
Keep in mind that this uses command line (CMD or Powershell) to execute with it`s functions through parameters. But don`t worry, there are examples and within the script so you only need to copy the folder path you wanna add.
Steps:
1. Download and get the latest Script.
2. Head to the Location of the Script and Hold Shift and Right-Click and select Open Powershell. (Always run at Administrator Privileges)
3. Copy the Folder Path of the EXE`s you wanna add to firewall and set your parameters.
