razorfancy 9 Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 (edited) I noticed that Windows Firewall service is still on even though if I access it, it says that ESET Internet Security is managing it. I decide to disable Windows Firewall service but I want to know if that affects ESET Firewall. Edited December 18, 2016 by razorfancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itman 1,538 Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 (edited) You should never disable the Win firewall service. Doing so disables the Windows filtering platform that the Eset and most third party security solutions firewall's use.

Administrators Marcos 4,693 Posted December 18, 2016 Administrators Share Posted December 18, 2016 Other firewall vendors may not disable Windows firewall completely or they would not pass Microsoft's tests. Also IPSec would not work either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
