Title: Can I unblock Apps blocked by the firewall?
Post by: bilnrobn12 on March 10, 2022, 03:56:44 AM

I can't see a way of doing this. I think I have blocked an inactive app in error. I only have a small number of blocked inactive apps and would like to view them and unblock any that I've blocked in error.

there should be a "Blocked Apps" that you can expand that list and unblock it there
its on the Protection > Firewall  , just under the Inactive Apps button show in the attched image

if its not there try finding it in the application rules in firewall settings
Menu > Settings > Protection > Firewall > View Application Rules > Application Rules

hope this Helps  :)

Thanks Kit. The first option worked. I had missed seeing a small down arrow at the bottom of the screen.
