I have a service (say BS.exe) written using C# of which the installer is created using Wix and C# (which means it has a Custom Action program associated with the Wix installer program as well). Now, after the program in installed there is a need to go to Windows Firewall settings and register the BS.exe there. That is, go to Windows Firewall -> Change Settings -> Exceptions tab and add BS.exe there.

However, now we need to do this process automatically during the installation time. I guess the Custom Action program associated with the Wix is the best place. So is there a way to register this EXE as a Firewall exception using C#?

Thanks in advance!
