Confusing firewall rules action view

Avast Free Antivirus / Premium Security
1

I noticed that the new version 22.2 (February 2022) implemented application rules manually without waiting for applications to connect to the internet. What is fantastic! Finally the bug fix! :wink:

But I see that the tool needs improvement. One of them is when you enter an app to be blocked it shows the app as allowed. But I clicked on the option to block application. The right thing would be to show it in red blocked.

For it to show blocked in red the correct one has to leave the Firewall menu and start again. All allowed apps by default have to appear as green allowed and blocked apps as red blocked.

I attached an image where it shows that both applications clicked on block, but one correctly showed blocked and the other allowed…both clicked on block applications!

Best regards

Hi,

I did exactly what you asked. With the same information contained here in the forum I sent the problem report. :wink:

But it didn’t return any link…if I have a response from support I’ll update the topic here! :slight_smile:
