Hi,

We use Windows 10 Pro in our environment and I want to block the access to the "Windows Store" app.

I dont want the users to download and install any applications from windows store.

I tried to block the Windows Store with the Application "Microsoft Store" on my Fortigate, but the Store still loads.

 

How can I block connections of the Windows 10 Store?

 

Thanks and have a good Day

    Are you decrypting traffic? It might be needed to block that application.

    Do you have a packet capture? If you can get one, I can take a look to see why did it not block. Did the signature show up on the logs?

    Hi

    Thanks for your responses. 

    I am not decrypting the traffic currently. I will try his.

    Unlikely we got our Fortigate pretty new. I am not that familiar with cli possibilities for debugging right now.

    I will try the decryption first. Maybe some of you could give me an advice how to debug this communication.

     

    Thanks!
