   [Update] Minimal Firewall 2.6.5   
   15 Jan 26 05:12:20   
   
   From: allanh@vivaldi.net   
      
   Alternative to Windows Firewall Control.   
      
   "Minimal Firewall enhances the built-in Windows Firewall to block all unknown   
   network connections by default, giving you complete control. It prompts you   
   for action when an application tries to connect, allowing you to mitigate   
   malware, stop unwanted    
   telemetry, and prevent data leaks. With Minimal Firewall, no application   
   "phones home" without your explicit permission.   
      
   Unlike most other Firewall programs, Minimal Firewall acts as a frontend,   
   avoiding enlarging your computer's attack surface by playing around with lower   
   levels of the WFP."   
      
   "Portable: Minimal Firewall is a single executable that requires no   
   installation. All rules are native to Windows Firewall, so no custom drivers   
   or services are left behind."   
      
   Requires .NET Desktop Runtime 8.0.   
   Version 1.8 ( https://github.com/deminimis/minimalfirewall/relea   
   es/download/v1.8/MinimalFirewall_Portable_v1.8_x64.zip ) is the last version   
   compatible with .NET Framework 4.8.
