I have AVG ZEN , hence I am "forced" to work with AVG Firewall. However I need some features from Microsoft Firewall .
Even though I disabled AVG firewall , when entering the Microsoft Firewall setting , it tells me that AVG controls it so I could not make it work.
How can I still make Microsoft Firewall the only Firewall on m PC , without the need to uninstall AVG altogether (paid for it…)
Thanks
When trying to enable Microsoft firewall -Windows shows me that :
"these settings are being managed by vendor application AVG internet security "
so I cant enable Microsoft firewall eventhoug my AVG firewall was disabled
Assaf,
We apologize but we appreciate your efforts. It could be better if you provide us the screenshot http://avgclick.me/getscreenshot of the error message you are getting. We suggest you to disable whole AVG Protection http://avgclick.me/TempDisableAVG temporarily and check if the issue persists. Thank you!
Assaf, For your info, just in case that you are unaware, you can post the screenshot here in your topic. Click on 'Answer' & then click on the 'Image' [mountain symbol] & follow the instructions.
