Avast! firewall is blocking my SWTOR (Star Wars: The Old Republic) launcher. My work-around has been to disable the firewall, but I don’t want to do that anymore. I have so far been unable to discover a solution. I need step-by-step instructions on how to properly set my firewall settings for SWTOR.
SOLVED! (Hopefully):
I went into Avast under Firewall > Application Rules, and just deleted all the Application Rules related to Bioware, SWTOR, and Bitwarrior(or whatever that’s called.) The launcher ran fine now. I hope this lasts. My problem was probably due to 3 installs over time, and 2 uninstalls with Avast not auto-addressing the Application Rules content for SWTOR.
