Hi Kevin, I went back into the, Turn Windows Firewall on or off link, & had a better look at the settings. Try the following: 1. Go to the control panel & enter on the Windows Firewall link. 2. Tab or shift + tab to the, Turn Windows Firewall on or off link, & press enter. When I press enter I land on an, Okay, button. 3. From the, Okay button, shift + tab 2 times, & there are 4 radio buttons, tab 1 time & there's another set of 4 radio buttons. These 2 sets of radio buttons are for Customizing 2 different types of Networks. When you, shift + tab 2 times, you are on the radio buttons for customizing the, Home or work (private) network location settings. When you tab 1 time you are on the radio buttons for customizing the Public network. Here's what I copied:
You can modify the firewall settings for each type of network location that you use. Home or work (private) network location settings Turn on Windows Firewall Block all incoming connections, including those in the list of allowed programs Notify me when Windows Firewall blocks a new program Turn off Windows Firewall (not recommended) Public network location settings Turn on Windows Firewall Block all incoming connections, including those in the list of allowed programs Notify me when Windows Firewall blocks a new program Turn off Windows Firewall (not recommended) 4. Use your up / down arrow keys to make your selections for each type of network settings. You might be able to tab through as well. Tabbing you will need to experiment with. I used the arrow keys. I didn't find an, Apply button, so after you make your choices in both sets of the radio buttons tab to, Okay, & press enter to save & close. I hope I explained this well enough to be understood without too much difficulty & hoepfully you'll get your Windows Firewall turned on. HTH Take care. Mike This email was sent from my, iBarstool.
