[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 107474, post: 1078628"] I am running WHHL wtth Microsoft Defender with Avast Free Firewall. Just install the Avast Free firewall as only part of the Avast Free security suite.The Avast FW uses the Windows internal FW framework, so it is only an application blacklist layer. It is like Glaswire paid for free. I manually added blockrules for LolBins (not all because some of the LoLbins blocked by Andy Ful in Firewall Hardening did not exist on my Windows 11 config). I can't find the info on MT anymore by a member posting that Avast has a new "limited" notifications option where it only shows popups which are security related (and not commercial upsell popups tryig to convince you to switch to the paid version). It really seems to work (no go premium popups or you are at risk because you don;t use paid) [/QUOTE]
