Hi,

you can either use the command line or powershell...

here is a link for the powershell option,
the command line netsh advfirewall import ...

Please make sure you read the documentation for the above command.

Cheers

Hi,
I must ask... why? Surely using a GPO is the best way to go...

  • hi Phil !!!
    you are right but exported wfw file from a reference system and import it to 15 different images of windows 10 is much more easier in the firewall settings through MSI ... one MSI run and everything done. we need to put about 110 IP address in the scope in GPO plus other ports and programs is much of a hassle every time we built a new image of windows 10 .... thats why we decided to import firewall settings through msi ... is there any way we can do that? - das1973 8 years ago
