Some more feedback: Yesterday I hod no problems. Today I started my PC and after about 5 UAC prompts and saving of rules in a row, the problem occurred. Before I could investigate, I had an hour long Skype call. After the call I noticed that the rules were saving again. Conclusion: Windows is blocking Eset temporarily when too many rules (UAC prompts) are created in a short time period. I searched for more info on this Windows behavior but I could not find anything. This should be easy to test. On a PC with lots of applications, set Eset to Interactive Mode, delete all rules and reboot. I bet that you will see the problem as you will get a ton of rule creation prompts.

Administrator, log will be sent when it happens again.

Hi, Eset Internet Security v12.1.34.0 Windows 10 1809 (Build 17763.475) I recently removed all my rules as I run in Interactive mode and wanted a fresh start. After saving a few rules Eset Internet Security throws an error on saving the rule "Failed to create rule". I then went into Advanced Settings - Network Protection - Enable Firewall and tried to turn the firewall off. I then got the error "An error occurred while saving settings. Please make sure that you have permissions to change settings." I have removed and reinstalled Eset Internet Security. The only way to get it saving rules again is to reboot. So what is happening here is that Windows has blocked Eset from saving any rules/settings. This has happened on two different computers. Is there a fix/ workaround? Thanks.

To answer what was asked in the other thread... - empty the firewall log *** How will this help? - enable logging of blocked communications in the IDS setup -> Troubleshooting *** I tried this and there is nothing I could find that is related - reproduce the issue *** Very easy. FW enabled run either SP or MP... Bam crash! - post the firewall log records here **** See above...

I tried with learning mode enable. The same result. I run in interactive mode. I see someone else has the identical problem.... https://forum.eset.com/topic/1612-cod-ghosts-multiplayer-crashes-badly-with-eset-firewall-enabled/ Thanks, keep the ideas coming

I have installed Call Of Duty Ghosts about 6 weeks ago. I have created exceptions in the firewall for steam and the single and multiplayer exe's. All ran smoothly until about 2 weeks ago after a game patch. If the Eset firewall is running then Ghosts would crash\freeze so badly I would be forced to reboot my machine. The only way to run the game was to do so with the firewall disabled. I would like to run the game with the firewall enabled. I have tried disabling Hips etc. Can you please suggest a solution to my problem. Thanks SurfRat, Windows 8.1 (fully patched) Eset Smart Security 7.0.302.26
