Allow executable with dynamic path through Windows Firewall

[DavR]

Hi all,

 

I did some reading around on this yesterday and came up with no useful answers, so I thought I'd put it out to the experts. Has anyone found a way of allowing LogMeIn Rescue through the local Windows Firewall? One of our suppliers uses it regularly to support their frequently broken product, but it always prompts for an admin login to allow through firewall.

 

I've tracked down the file I need to allow, LMI_Rescue.exe, but, it lives in a temp file in the user's AppData, which is never the same location twice.

 

Anyone got ideas on how to allow an executable through Windows local firewall, but from a dynamic location?

 

Alternatively, any ideas on how to give a user group access to add their own firewall exceptions?

 

Thanks!
