AkrutoSync blocked by firewall

Please follow the instructions to change the Firewall settings : Open AVG Zen -> Internet Security -> Click on "Menu" in the top right corner -> Settings -> Components -> Firewall -> Customize -> Network Profiles -> Change the networks from "Public" to "Private" (If it is in "Private", change it to "Public")

I'm running AVG Internet Security (formerly called AVG Protection PRO) and the firewall is blocking AkrutoSync which I use to sync Outlook on my laptop and Galaxy S7 Edge. How do I fix this?

Many thanks!

Hi Gunaseelan,
I tried what you suggested but I still get the same problem - AkrutoSync will only work with firewall turned off…
Thanks,
Simon

Hi Gunaseelan,
I've added Akruto to the exceptions list but I still cannot sync…
Thanks,
