Have you manually added the extension in the manifest as we explain in the article (https://www.advancedinstaller.com/firewall-rules-msix.html) while creating the package the MSIX Packaging Tool or have you created the package with Advanced Installer.
If you didn't created the package with Advanced Installer, you can download a trial version to create a test package, then extract and compare its manifest with the one you manually created, to see if you missed something 😉

Thank you for the reply. However, my problem Is how to add:
1. Local port (an external server needs to have a port open with the application).
2. Allow subnet for an executable
(Lokalt undernät = Local Subnet)
I have downloaded and tested Advanced Installer but I just can't find the option for adding "local subnet" or to allow a port for the server to contact the application.
I guess I'm missing something here but I'm pretty new to all of this.
