Morisato 8 Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Is it like v9-10 as in bloated and messy? I'm still on v8. Reason I like v8 rules layout so much is because it's really easy to find the app you're looking for just by looking at the icon/name instead of that horrid listing they got in 9/10. I mean if they kept the icons/app name layout and used the new individual rule layout when you expand the rules of that particular app I would definitely upgrade to that. This is v9 if I recall and it's a mess. Don't know how anyone could navigate through that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is v9 if I recall and it's a mess. Don't know how anyone could navigate through that. Sadly yes it is still a mess and something i have brought up plenty of times. For example due to the way rules are managed in the order they are listed or something like that you cannot arrange them by name. I wouldn't mind if they at least removed the "allow communication for" part so it started with the filename and the icon to identify it quicker. I did hear they plan to overhaul it at some point.

Morisato 8 Posted January 30, 2018 Author Share Posted January 30, 2018 (edited) Hah, when I was searching for EIS 11 rules images before posting (couldn't find any), I came across the issue you were mentioning. This issue dated back in 2015. https://forum.eset.com/topic/6237-annoying-text-in-firewall-rules-editor/ Even TomasP said, "Hello, I have checked this with our development team and they say a fix for the situation is planned for a future version." Now whether this has already changed or not I am not sure since I never tried v9-11 (dammit everything I do seems to coincidentally relate to the dates 9/11). If they did remove the 'allow communication' part, they could totally add more things there to fill the gap if need be. I was sorta hoping it would be a hybrid of v8 with elements of the new layout. Tree folder like view like you see in v8 with the modern rules shown when you expand the rules hidden (by default). Another perk of the old v8 is that it shows file description along with the file version which is handy imo. Best of both worlds is to add view skins of sorts so people can choose the new layout or hybrid of the old/new.
