👍 Watch how to set up Windows Firewall to restrict Internet access for certain applications (that is, how to block their inbound and outbound Internet traffic). 

Why would you need it? 
Blocking inbound traffic allows disabling unwanted software updates, annoying advertising or saving traffic. 
Blocking outbound traffic can prevent leaks of confidential information. Blocking is also good if you want to secure your child from watching unwanted content or spending too much time playing online games. 
We will have a look at how firewall works in Windows 10, but this advice will also work in Windows 8 or 7.
