Norton Firewall on my PC is blocking me from connecting via remote desktop

Norton 360 for Windows
1

I had Windows firewall manage my remote desktop access and only allowed certain IP addresses.
Since installing Norton 360 I’m not able to connect to my PC remotely or able to browse to folders on my PC from another. I’d like to remove the Norton Firewall completely and just use Windows Firewall. How do I do this?

Hello @Philly_Bear
Norton 360 v24?
have you tried Windows Settings Mode?

I’m in work at the moment and because I’m blocked i can’t connect to my machine.
What did you click on to get that option up for Windows mode?
I will definitely try this when I get home later. I thought I’d have to remove Norton completely after a google search. Thanks for your help.

Turned it to Windows Settings Mode and all good now. Also turned on Private Network, so not sure what fixed it.

Well, I’ve toggled all switches without seeing smoke.
I imagine you may also toggle all switched without seeing smoke.

Note: my machine > Private (recommended)
