I am currently using Comodo Firewall V3.5.57173.439
Yes, I know, that is an old one, but the update option does not work.
To try and recover from this, I was going to reinstall with a more up to date version and hope that the update feature works ok with that one.
The question I have is whether or not it is possible to save all of the rules and permissions I have attained over the years and transfer them into the new install of Comodo. I know for a fact that if I just do a simple installation that it will overwrite the rules and I have to start all over again teaching the firewall.
The firewall seems to be working ok apart from letting me update it.
As I am seeing posts for (at the very least) V5 of the firewall and I am using V3 (which I installed around Dec 2008), I figured that it was probably about time that I updated to get hold of any improvements or security issue fixes.
That was the only reason.
I did find a firewall backup I had made earlier in the year. I assume this cannot be used for anything.
If I were to install the latest version, is there a way to say that everything I currently have on the PC is to be regarded as ‘fit for purpose’ so that I don’t have to retrain the firewall from scratch all over again?
