It'll immediately be able to make outgoing web connections, and TinyWall will remember its status so you don't have to worry about this again.Įxplore TinyWall's menus and you'll find many other useful options.
If you've launched a program which you'd like to connect to the web, say, just right-click the TinyWall system tray icon, choose "Whitelist by process", choose your program's icon from the list and click Select. But of course by not having an alert at all, it does mean that you may initially have a few problems, as some programs simply stop working for no immediately obvious reason. This behaviour is intentional, as the author thinks (not unreasonably) that when presented with these Allow/ Deny alerts, most users just always click "Allow". And unusually, if you launch an internet-facing application which isn't on the approved list then there's no pop-up alert the connection is just blocked. Once installed, the program will automatically block outgoing connections by all but a few recognised installed programs, for instance (Edge, Chrome, Firefox and so on). TinyWall is a compact free tool which works with the Windows Vista and 7 firewall to enhance its security.
