I have added the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\webcam 7\wLite.exe in the exception list but there is still something blocking my 8080 port. when i disconnect the firewall everything works as expected.
I have C:\Program Files (x86)\webcam 7\wLite.exe in the allowed list and i have C:\Program Files (x86)\webcam 7\wLite.exe in the exception list. any ideas.
