Check the Firewall status using the command line......

Windows Firewall is typically on by default, but you can use Command Prompt (cmd) to check its status and even turn it on or off. Here's what you need to know:
Checking Firewall Status:
Open Command Prompt as administrator. You can do this by searching for "cmd" in the Start menu, right-clicking on "Command Prompt" and selecting "Run as administrator".
Then, type the following command and press Enter:
netsh advfirewall show allprofiles state
This will display the current state (on or off) for all firewall profiles (Domain, Private, and Public).
