Windows Firewall is (re?) enabled on W10 in the 1511 update.
Can you reproduce the problem & if so how reliably?:
Been in both setups I use Comodo in
If you can, exact steps to reproduce. If not, exactly what you did & what happened:
Update:
1: have Comodo running (pre-4792 version)
2: have Windows firewall disabled
3: update to W10 1511
Fresh Install
1: install W10 1511 fresh
2: install Comodo (was 4703 when installed)
One or two sentences explaining what actually happened:
In the Fresh install Windows Firewall stays enabled. In the updated 1511 case, windows Firewall was re-enabled (probably due to the settings reset issues in the 1511 update).
Windows Defender stayed disabled.
One or two sentences explaining what you expected to happen:
I expected Windows Firewall to stay disabled
