Talking about the best time for WinXP firewall to shut down

WinXP firewall loves and hates many people. On the one hand, it protects WinXP system, so that it is not invaded by other hackers, and on the other hand it is safe. The tight line of defense often leads to the monitoring of some of our daily operations, and the need to remove the firewall before proceeding. So Xiaobian today talks about when the WinXP firewall needs to be shut down. Turning off the firewall before performing the next three steps can save us a lot of problems.

First, the installation program

When you install many programs are required to turn off the firewall (such as WPS Office 2003). Some programs are not directly stated, but if they are not closed in time, it may cause installation failure, such as pop-up "read error", "install *.exe error", etc., or simply crash, or install it. After that, it cannot be used normally. This small series has been repeatedly verified when installing programs such as Kingsoft Studios and Office XP.

Second, when defragmenting

When defragmenting disk in WinXP, the screen saver no longer interferes with the normal defragmentation in Win98 (every time you have to start again) But the virus firewall still plays a role in interference, especially the firewall of some third-party software, such as Kingsoft Internet Security firewall, will make the defragmentation impossible, and there will be repeated disk icons in the sorting list, and it will take a long time to pop up the prompt. : Disk fragmentation can't be sorted, so certain error. At this time try to turn off the firewall and see if it is normal.

Tip: This is not the case when running the defragmenter at the command prompt.

Third, system restore

System restore in WinXP can be said to be a one-of-a-kind regret, but you may encounter the following situation: when creating a new system restore point system Tip: You cannot complete the creation of a new restore point. Restart your computer and run System Restore again. However, the creation of a new restore point cannot be completed even after a reboot. In fact, the culprit is still a virus firewall. As long as it is turned off, it can be restored.

The virus firewall also has an effect on the process of restoring the system to a certain time in the past. The system is not responding after clicking the “OK” button. The most frightening thing is that even if the system restore is barely completed, some programs also Not working properly.

When WinXP users perform the above three steps, it is best to close all firewalls in advance, so that there will be no various problems during the operation. The general advantage of the firewall is still greater than the shortcomings. As long as we pay attention to it in some places, it can still bring the strongest protection to the system.
