[QUOTE="Decopi, post: 983850, member: 67091"] Thank you once again for your replay. I believe my post wasn't clear (my apologies). Please, let me try to rephrase myself once again: I'm not blocking individual processes (like telemetry etc). My whole internet connection and network access both are blocked by default. I don't want to jump into details, but in short, absolutely nothing in my device has internet connection or network connection. However, I do have a software which allows me to create rules for specific processes, giving them access to internet or network. So again, it's not about blocking, it's about allowing specific processes. That said, my focus never was Apps, nor Programs, nor Windows Defender. I'm focused only at Windows 11 OS processes. And here is where I found lot of great help in different forums, advanced users helped me a lot, now I have an interesting list of OS (critical) processes that (really) need access to internet/network (otherwise too much stuff crashes). But I do appreciate all the help I received here. [/QUOTE]
