Hi,
Why I can not block portable apps with Windows default Firewall?
I try this command as administrator rights:
netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="PORTABLE_WiseDiskCleaner" dir=out action=block program="E:\PortableApps\PortableApps\WiseDiskCleanerPortable\App\WiseDiskCleaner\WiseDiskCleaner.exe"
But WiseDiskCleaner still use my network. How can I block with Windows default firewall (or settings)?
Thanks in advance

You're trying to block the portable launcher that handles launching the app portably which doesn't connect to the internet. You need to block the actual app within. In the above instance, you'd block: E:\PortableApps\PortableApps\WiseDiskCleanerPortable\App\WiseDiskCleaner\App\WiseDiskCleaner\WiseDiskCleaner.exe
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
