What's the best way to block Windows programs from accessing the internet/network?

I used ZoneAlarm interactive firewall in the past to do this. It would popup asking if I wanted to let "Program.exe" access the internet or block it. But ZoneAlarm is no longer good freeware.

install ubuntu. This will fix your problem

You can make appropriate rules in the built-in firewall to block applications you don't want to go online. Don't need anything 3rd party for that.

Tinywall.

Have to use Windows only programs.

I see that but it's a lot of hassle to find all programs and add rules in.

Then there are services that run in background that need to be blocked.

Is it free and is it good?

Why not just do the opposite? Block everything and when you need something add it.

>>62035931
Unplug the machine

Have to pay for the full version.

>>62036173
I can try that.

But then I would have no internet to do other things. It would be less convenient.
