Problem you are trying to solve

In my native idiom or in English, I don't understand what means "Enable rule". Does it mean that MS is permitted do keep doing what it does or does it mean that the rule is an app rule and I suppose that is to block the app / service to access internet? Instead of "rule", please use something clear like BLOCK marked checkboxes.

Suggested solution

Instead of use "rule" , use BLOCK marked checkboxes.

A rule it's like a doorman. One knows who to let in. Another can deny the entrance. Another can allow the exit. Another can deny the exit. Enable rule = you choose what doorman to be active. You can have as many as you want.
