Open gtdRR opened 1 year ago

gtdRR commented 1 year ago

Microsoft PowerToys version

0.71.0

Installation method

PowerToys auto-update

Running as admin

Yes

Area(s) with issue?

Mouse Without Borders

Steps to reproduce

When applying the last 2 updates v0.70.0 to V0.70.1 and now v.070.1 to v0.71.0, the Windows firewall rule "PowerToys.MouseWithoutBorders" is reset back to default.

The windows firewall rule reverts to the same settings that are applied when using the "Add a firewall rule..." button under Troubleshooting in MWB settings.

✔️ Expected Behavior

Program should update and settings should not be changed including the windows firewall rule.

❌ Actual Behavior

It seems like the "Add a firewall rule.." script is run automatically during an update and any previous changes made to that firewall rule are wiped.
