Removing the NetWorx rules in Windows firewall   28 April 2015, 18:48

Hello

In the firewall settings of windows 7 i have about ten rules for networx (supposedly added at each update) the thing is i can't remove them, even with the admin rights the delete button stays greyed on those, i can remove other apps rules but not networx.

How can i remove those rules?

Thanks

This is a Windows issue, it's not related to NetWorx in particular. Try the steps this Microsoft article "Windows Firewall settings are greyed out" suggests, and if it doesn't help, post a screen shot here.

your link is just about the normal way to use the firewall, there is nothing to try there, i already done that obviously since it is the normal way

and the rules for networx can't be removed this way since the remove button stay grayed on those

but whatever, i just needed to use the "advanced settings" of the firewall to delete whatever i want
