The new version of the program comes with an improved connection log interface.

Registered users may need to grab a new activation code on the developer website after installation to change the activation status to activated again. This depends on the version that is installed. Note that existing users may need to uninstall the program before they can install the new version. The developer released two versions of the program on the same day, with version 5.0.1 of the program fixing an issue in version 5.0. Windows Firewall Control 5.0, or more precisely 5.0.1, is the latest version of the application. It supports two main notifications mode: display notifications whenever new connections are made, or enable the program's learning mode which allows connections for signed executable files, and displays notifications for unsigned ones. Notifications may be displayed for outbound connections, and it is up to you to decide what to do with those. The donation-ware version adds to that a notifications system that makes things a lot easier. It may block other programs from adding rules to Windows Firewall, makes it easier to add new rules itself, may display invalid or duplicate firewall rules, and options to allow or block connections in the security log. Windows Firewall Control free comes with lots of interesting features that improve Windows Firewall in one way or another. The program is available as a free, somewhat limited, version, and a version that is unlocked when you make a donation.
