Click on the Defender icon and then on the Firewall section and report on the warning message.– harrymcCommented May 14, 2018 at 14:36

Click on the Defender icon: OK, opens "Windows Defender Security Center" Then on the Firewall section: impossible, since that place is already occupied by the warning "Die Windows Defender Firewall verwendet Einstellungen, die Ihr Gerät gefährden könnten" (the windows defender firewall uses settings that could harm your device - or so). Below that is a button "Einstellungen wiederherstellen" (restore settings), which, when applied, wipe all rules completely back to their defaults (snake oil settings).– White-GandalfCommented May 14, 2018 at 14:55

P.S.: Under "Systemsteuerung\Alle Systemsteuerungselemente\Sicherheit und Wartung", it tells me the firewall being completely switched off. What is completely wrong. I have no clou about which action triggered this level of wrongfulness in this system.– White-GandalfCommented May 14, 2018 at 15:08

How did you restrict the firewall to whitelisting?– harrymcCommented May 14, 2018 at 15:16

That was the setting of "outgoing" connections to "blocked". After that, only registered exceptions are allowed to telephone out. Thanks for helping with experimenting by the way: In the long run, it triggered me to look at the right place (see "solution" answer).– White-GandalfCommented May 14, 2018 at 15:26

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. windows-7), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
