I use Adguard For Windows, which already does an admirable job of filtering all my browser traffic, and I don't use email applications. Therefore it's in my best interest to disable protocol filtering so I don't have to whitelist a website in two separate programs.
However, ever since 11.1, the ability to disable the alert for having protocol filtering disabled has been broken. I submitted it via the bug report system, but to my chagrin it never got any sort of response. I upgraded to the beta version, 11.2, in hopes that it would be fixed there, but no such luck.
Here are pictures as proof. I have every single application status disabled here just to rule them all out as a factor...
And then I, of course, hit OK and then OK again... and this is what I see as my home screen.
Other features that are disabled do not show an alert, but protocol filtering does. There does not seem to be any way around this.
Please fix it.
