User Interface - size problem
Starting with version 2.5.1, the user interface is excessively zoomed in and cannot be reduced in size, rendering it unusable. Also, if the user interface is minimized to the task bar, the icon has trouble responding to mouse clicks. Version 2.4.3 is the last version that works properly. Tested on multiple computers, error occurs consistently, environments are Windows 10 v1909 and newer.
OK, I found a workaround for this scaling problem I posted recently. From the "FreeFirewall.exe" properties, select "Compatibility tab>Change settings for all users>Change high DPI settings>High DPI scaling override". Check the box and set "Scaling performed by" to System.
Scaling worked perfectly in v2.4.3 without this extra step.
Many thanks for your efforts in providing the only effective and simple alternative to ZoneAlarm.
