"textContent": "It’s a simple workaround, I had removed the MFW prefix, which allowed Windows to override those rules. Now adding back the prefix by default, they exist as separate rules, and block rules override allow rules.\n\nI attempted to disable all Windows-created rules by default, but that would lead to ongoing maintenance to figure out every service and app necessary for internet, which gets complicated when dealing with WSL + VPNs. So in reverse, users can look at the audit log and determine if they want to block and Windows-created rule that they don’t already have a rule for.",
