Nice app. Please test it with the Windows classic theme (Windows 7/2008 R2), the "Glasswire" button is a bit glitchy.
What's the overhead of Glasswire? For me it's 2-6% CPU (of my many core systems).
What does the gwdrv.sys kernel driver do exactly? Hook into the TCPIP.sys kernel driver?
Is the "Glasswire control service" an app update service? Blocking it in the "Firewall" tab has no negative side effect so far.
- greenwalls 12y agoThank you. We will test with that theme, thanks for the details. My CPU is nowhere close to 2% when GlassWire is minimized and I have an older PC with 8.1. Please send details if you have time via email or our forum. GlassWire checks for software updates. If you block GlassWire from accessing the network then you won't hear about new versions.
