How to allow a program through the firewall and add an exception

Windows doesn’t allow many programs for your system’s security. But we can add a program through windows firewall by changing the settings in Control Panel of your system. This can be done in the following way:

Go to “Control Panel\System and Security\Windows Firewall” and select the option “Allow a program or feature through Windows Firewall”. Select the installed program of your wish and press “OK” .

To add an exception, click on “Allow another program” and a new window will be opened. Then select the required program and press “OK”. This is the way to add exception programs.
