Now I AM confused. Webroot DOES NOT use a firewall since Windows Defender handles the firewall. Is that correct??
Hi @,
 
Windows Firewall and Windows Defender are two separate things.
 
Webroot still has an outbound firewall ... Please see @'s very helpful post  bellow with link explaining further.
 
You want the Windows firewall enabled.
 
Please see the link @ posted for information regarding Windows Defender and Webroot.
 
 
Thanks,
