Then the most likely explanation is either the Windows Firewall is not configured properly or your application's at fault.
If a third-party firewall isn't installed, no Windows user should EVER disable the Windows Firewall or need to do so.

Very likely PA Bear because of the error message that pops up. I found the
GPO that prevents me from turning the FW off. I edited the policy and now
users can access the application. Thanks for the input.

I believe this is preventing one of our third party apps to not function
properly.
Highly unlikely.
Is there such a GPO (or any GPOs) in place?
What third-party app and what's not functioning properly?

turn it on or off. all options are greyed out. Any input is greatly
appreciated. thanks.
