Temporarily allow --- duration?

Anyone know what the duration of “temporary” is? I use manual program control so I allow/block as needed. Sometimes when installing things I allow various odd things using the temporarily allow option in the popup. Trying to figure out when the allow expires.

Hello @IrwinMFletch

So, if I understand:

When Automatic Program Control is set to Ask

How long does the “Allow” → “Temporarily” last?
What is the time duration of “Temporary”?

by my Firefox test… “Temporarily → Allow” needs to be re-satisfied after machine restart.

========================================================

When does “Temporarily → Allow” expire?
What is the duration of “Temporary”?

as per Norton support:
every machine restart…Norton will prompt = Allow _______.exe to access the internet.
“Temporarily → Allow” duration survives until the next machine restart.
