If you are having issues connecting or enabling hosting on your Windows computer, please confirm that a Windows Firewall Exception has been added for Parsec. Usually, this will happen automatically, but you should confirm it's approved for public, private, and domain profiles.

• Press Windows key + R, paste control firewall.cpl and press Enter
• Select "Allow an app or feature...." in the sidebar
• Click Change settings, search for Parsec and enable the checkboxes, then click OK
