Changelog

  • Improved: The start-up mechanism of wfc.exe was updated for faster launch.
  • New: Added a confirmation dialog before restoring WFC recommended rules.
  • Updated: The WFC recommended allow rules were updated based on the feedback received in the past months.
  • Removed: The WFC recommended block rules were all removed since they are useless when Medium Filtering is applied. In some cases they also created connectivity issues with Windows Update.
  • Removed: Shell Integration does not allow creating multiple rules for the same file.
  • Fixed: Shell Integration does not work properly. If multiple files are selected in Windows Explorer, new rules are created only for some of them.
  • Fixed: The Exit menu item of the tray application does not work anymore if the service is stopped.
