How to suppress the Firewall Exception Rule window..

How to suppress the Firewall Exception Rule window..

In Sequencing after source installation,
I Added a firewall exception rule for an exe file which is located C:\program files\ABC\XYZ.exe
and I given, Allowing incomming and outgoing connections on all network connections.

This has done from "Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Windows Firewall\Allowed Programs" and browsed exe file.. and selected all Network Location Types.
Then I added that exe as Windows Firewall allowed programs.

But at the Testing time of sequenced application I was getting Firewall window for Allowing network connections.
And I can access the network connection by ignoring that window..

I added related registries to that exe from location,
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\SharedAccess\Parameters\FirewallPolicy\FirewallRules"
but still getting that window..

I don't think you can suppress, since it's the feature of local firewall component which does not see any virtual registry settings you might have. The only option would be to add the rule to each and every client computer (using GPO for instance) receiving that package.

Just be aware that Windows firewall will see all binaries executed from App-V package using the "Q: path" even though you might do VFS sequence (because that's where the binary IS for Windows). So you need to look how the executable path looks like client's POV (easiest from actual FW prompt when you launch that app) and use that path when creating a rule.

Just try this script...

change the application name and the path according to your needs....


Set objFirewall = CreateObject("HNetCfg.FwMgr")
Set objPolicy = objFirewall.LocalPolicy.CurrentProfile

Set objApplication = CreateObject("HNetCfg.FwAuthorizedApplication")
objApplication.Name = "Application name"
objApplication.IPVersion = 2
objApplication.ProcessImageFileName = "path of the exe"
objApplication.RemoteAddresses = "*"
objApplication.Scope = 0
objApplication.Enabled = True

Set colApplications = objPolicy.AuthorizedApplications
colApplications.Add(objApplication)


pls let me know the results
