Windows firewall problem

Hi everybody,
we are trying to deploy our VoIp application using cameyo. Everything works fine except the fact we've had some issues with Windows 7 firewall.
Normally, when we execute our software for the first time, Windows 7 firewall detects that the application is trying to bind to some UDP and TCP ports and prompts a warning to the user, asking him if he wants to add an exception for the application. But when we execute the virtual application (i.e. the xxx.cameyo.exe file) nothing happens. The software runs,  our application process is in memory, but the firewall warning doesn't appear and the application is isolated, at least until we manually create a firewall rule. Any hints? How does Cameyo affects on TCP/UDP port allocation?

Thanks in advance.

Hi there

I see this post was made quite a while ago, so maybe you already have a solution. If not, you could try the following:

Use command prompt and execute the netsh advfirewall command together with the settings you would like to create a rule for. You can execute this using the Custom events options in the Package Editor. You can then use another netsh command to remove the rule when you close the virtual app.

You can find all the info about how to control Windows Firewall with Command Prompt here:

Hope this can be of some use to you.
