Sorry, I'm actually using AVG Internet Security, but the AVG forum is a little too quiet so I'm asking it here. Avast, AVG, (almost) the same thing anyway.
Probably since the latest update, if I create any custom Network Rule, it instantly breaks the firewall, causing it unable to detect nor filter applications.
Set to Smart Mode: Nothing. No rules were created for new applications.
Set to Block Mode: Nothing. Any application can access to the Internet, even those I've set to block.
Set to Ask Mode: Nothing. Any application can access to the Internet anyway.
The Firewall will remain broken after I remove custom rules. The only way to fix this is resetting the Network/Application rules to default and never adding custom Network Rules.
Tried to reinstall it and it always behaves the same.
I don't know if this happens to Avast too or it's just me. Despite I doubt the Smart Mode Firewall actually does anything, it's still bothersome.

Thank you.
