Ea app cant connect when ask to connect is on

ea app cant connect when ask to connect is on.

it doesnt popup asking to connect or show at all when ask to connect is on if i delete the entries.

i have tried turning off malwarebytes sheilds one by one and primary av.

i also changed settings in the adguard and turned off all ad blocking.

the ea app works fine in click to block mode.

this basicaly locks me out of 30-40 games

Exactly the same is happening to me, no popup from glasswire about EA app and it did not show in firewall list at all until i uninstalled glasswire and deleted registry entries and restored default settings in windows firewall AND restored default settings + clean setup during reinstall of glasswire.

I tried everything like reinstall glasswire, reinstall EA app, clean settings, deleted registry entries, setting up inbound and outbound rules in windows firewall, restored default settings etc etc multiple times. Non of it worked.

EA App connects fine when click to block is enabled or glasswire is not running/is uninstalled and when i turn ask to connect on again it gets blocked.

If i have click to block on and start EA app so that it connects and then turn ask to connect on again while EA app is running EA app loses connection.

All EA mentions like backgroundservice etc in firewall list is allowed (green).
I have glasswire Elite.
I’ve spent the last three hours trying to fix this and i give up. Hope this gets fixed soon.

I can confirm this issue - additionally, even once all the EA apps/services get their connection, moving to Ask (from Click to Block) causes everything EA to lose connection.
