    1st impression:
    (+) Clean and well structures, easy to: understand/handle/configure.
    (+) … e.g. allow, block, or always allow/block processes.
    (+) basic functionality actions are done by just single clicks!
    (+) had no crashes and found no other misbehave since now.
    (-) a little bit hungry for resources.

    All advanced features are to be tested and watched by me in the next month(s)…

    For now I would say:
    Thank you! – Seems to offer all what I need and being made for everyday usage!

    Its easy to use and remembers me of famous (an beloved!) “Sygate Personal Firewall” (sigh…: I missed it VERY much, for I found no equivalent replacement in the recent years for that great tool… But now I am hopeful to have found!)

    Have you tried Malwarebytes Windows Firewall Control?

    Thank you for the hint; but yes, of course I tried this too, but found it not that convenient and flexible…

    With XVirus P.F.Pro I found a (for me useful and important) point:
    (-) missing a toggle to block all traffic!
    Again I get to the conclusion: I´m really missing Sygate PF …

    Can this run along with Windows Defender in Windows 10 or does it cause a conflict?
    So far, I like it.

    For some, unknown to me, reason Xvirus Personal Firewall PRO is giving me a warning saying “You aren’t secure!”
    I am just using the default setting. Strange warning!!!!

    Had been puzzeld too by this message:
    As far as I remember this was due to not having activated the option of watching (scanning?) for behavior (or similar)…

    But I tested again and returned to WFC:
    Downloaded the current version (had not even noticed before, that WFC now belongs to “Malwarebytes”…!)…
    And I now noticed some improvements, which I seemingly missed because I dropped it more than 2 (or even more) years ago.

    1. What does the “Cloud check” actually do? What are you uploading? Hashes? Headers? Full files?
    2. Settings > Proactive Settings > Enable Ransom Watcher > Settings Gear: Button on the lower right says “Readd selected files”[sic]. If no one is even checking for typos, how can I be confident that this tool is secure?
