Description
When trying to install a Windows Agent from a Probe, the installation fails if the Windows Firewall is blocking certain Windows Management Services.
Environment
- Windows Active Directory Domain
- N-able N-central 9.x and later
Solution
This is because by default, the Windows Firewall blocks certain Remote Administration services.
Refer to Group Policy Changes to Windows Firewall.
