Windows Firewall: blocking Internet access for an application (outgoing and incoming traffic)

Learn how to configure Windows Firewall to restrict Internet access for certain applications (that is, how to block their incoming and outgoing Internet traffic).

Why would you need it?
Blocking inbound traffic helps disable unwanted software updates, annoying ads, or save traffic.
Blocking outbound traffic can prevent leaks of confidential information. Blocking is also useful if you want to prevent your child from watching unwanted content or spending too much time playing online games.
We'll see how the firewall works in Windows 10, but this tip will also work in Windows 8 or 7.
