Which versions of Windows do you support? Also what happens with the firewall that ships with Windows when you install Safing?

Q: Which versions of Windows do you support?

Windows 10+11 full. Windows 7+8 without desktop notifications.

Q: Also what happens with the firewall that ships with Windows when you install Safing?

Currently nothing. It stays there and active as it is.

Thanks for the answers.

Would you recommend to manually disable the Windows firewall?
