Prune rules all at once

GlassWire Help
1

Hi there, when troubleshooting a not working app, one of the things to check is if it is blocked by firewall by turning it off and on, however, this takes 10 minutes just to turn all the rules off.

To speed this up and for simplicity I wouldn’t mind removing ALL rules at once and adding them to the list as I go with “Ask To Connect” again.

Is there a way to do this?

Or is there a way to see if a currently active app is being blocked by some rule? For example Teams probably uses WebView, which I often block. Figuring out which blocked WebView is being used by the Teams is impossible to do right now. Knowing it would make the fix easy, just enable the specific WebView

I think when you install/reinstall there is an option to nuke all firewall rules.

Okay, that’s a good piece of trivia, but it’s not so user friendly.

Is it the “Restore Windows Firewall Default Settings” option in the installer? I have no idea what “default settings” means.

There are two reset options. One to completely reset the firewall, and one to reset GlassWire app settings back to default.
