Firewall & Homegroup Help!
Hello!
I need help with some company computers... We are wanting to connect two computers via Homegroup, to share printers, documents, etc. Only one computer needs to have internet access, the other we want to block all outgoing connections, (except anything associated
with Homegroup). The restriction of internet on the second computer is not my call, but it must be done. Can somebody help me figure this out with Firewall? Is there any other way of doing this other than manually blocking the connection from Programs
such as IE and Chrome?
Please help!

Hi,
You can block the programs to using Internet via Windows Firewall.
