SUMMARY

The discussion centers on resolving an error message encountered when opening Intel XDK, specifically related to firewall and proxy settings. Users are instructed to create new inbound rules in the Windows Firewall to allow traffic through specific ports. The participant faces challenges with the Windows Control Panel, particularly with the 'Bypass proxy server' option not saving and the 'port' box being inactive in the LAN settings. Clear steps to configure firewall settings and troubleshoot proxy issues are essential for successful Intel XDK operation.

Every time I try to open Intel XDK it comes up with the error message that is attached.

It gives instructions on what to do to allow the ports,
and I've attached the screen shots of what I've done in control panel- so in firewall, (with the new windows I can't get to the 'exceptions' tab and I believe the way to it is to go to 'advanced settings', 'indound rules' , 'new rules' and as attached are two screen shots of the new rule I created.

I was unsure whether I am supposed to go to firewall settings or internet settings, so I've done both as attached.

As attached I've ticked the 'Bypass proxy server...', however, every time I click back into control panel, the box appears unchecked again (I think this may be because I haven't pressed apply...however this button remains unactive and I have no idea why ! )

I also don't understand why the 'port' box remains unactive within the 'internet options' 'connection' 'Lan settings'

Many Thanks in advance.

p.s- apologies if this isn't the right place to post, if it isn't could someone please tell me where is? ta.
