Disabling antivirus and checking Windows firewall settings

Anti-virus programs are often the cause of Windows errors due to incompatibilities.

1. Click on Win + R, type Firewall.cpl, then press OK.
2. Select Enable or disable the Windows firewall.
3. Go to Private Network Settings and select Disable Windows Firewall (not recommended).
4. Then access the public network settings and select Disable Windows Firewall (not recommended).
