Microsoft Defender firewall list of allowed apps and functions

Hello all

My game League of Legends, it is not on the Microsoft Defender firewall list of allowed apps and functions, and yet I can play it. All my other games is on the list. This is the case on both my laptop and main PC.

How can this be?
Have I somehow granted it access in some other way?

Thanks in advance for replying

Best regards

It uses common IP ports and is not considered malicious.

The "list of allowed apps" refers to inbound connections, not outbound.

Inbound connections for LoL game would be blocked ex. if you host your game server, however to play multplayer games this is all about outbound traffic which is by default allowed.

I looked in Firewall Advanced settings of Windows, on both the inbound/outbound list of allowed connections. I read them through several times. No listing of Riot or League of Legends, how can that be?

Thanks again
