    Firewall rule(s) to allow all traffic through the firewall?


    I'm tired of seeing the message that my firewall is disabled all the time.

    Is there a simply rule or rules that I can apply to the firewall that will allow all traffic to flow both ways?

    I have a hardware firewall that keeps the network safe, so the Windows firewall isn't really offering any more security for me.

    I'm running Windows 10 Pro 64bit.

    Thanks!

    I finally just left the Windows firewall running. If it causes issues, I will deal with it then.
