Currently there are only 2 options if fort detects a new program that creates a connection.

But for example if there is a setup that creates a connection at installation time, I would want to [ ignore ] it and not pollute the programs list with it.

Currently if I click "cancel" it will create an entry and block it (that behavier is OK, just add an ignore option, maybe with a time, to not add an entry and ask again at next connection or after the time expired).

So if I run the setup again it should ask again because it will detect it again as new program.

Just check a "Schedule" flag in the popup alert. It has a "Remove after 5 minutes" setting by default for alert.

I usually "ignore" the uninstallers that way. And that's why the default action is "Remove".

OK, yes your right, that works, it is only one click more.

It is a valid question if adding another button is too much on the interface or not.
With an ignore button I would leave the popup open until setup is done and then click ignore to close it.

But yes I think it is just a thing to get used to it to simply enable the timer and then click OK. 👍
And I tested, if I enable the timer and click cancel it will not save the timer.
It could be detected that the user changed a setting and ask if one really want to cancel, but I think it is not needed.

There will be new buttons after implementing "Ask to connect" mode, to view paused connections list.

I was thinking about adding some "Apply to this Process only and do not create Program entry" action in the popup with "Ask to connect". But the timer is OK)
