I've recently attempted to make a minecraft server on my computer I've not got any results thus far
My first step was to allow it in windows 10 firewall by allow a inbound and outbound TCP and UDP 25565 rule.
That didn't help so I then tried doing it on AVG by going to Full Protection > Enhanced Firewall > Packet rules and made 2 rules one for UDP in and out and one for TCP In and out both on 25565 that also didn't give me any results.
so finally I've went and turned on internet sharing mode and put my internet as private in the enhanced firewall menu but that also didn't do anything to help so I'm kind of out of ideas
