    The following policies need to be enabled to allow PDQ Deploy and PDQ Inventory to successfully manage client computers. From your GPO editor (GPMC.MSC or GPEDIT.MSC)

    Windows Firewall: Allow inbound file and printer sharing exception 
    Windows Firewall: Allow ICMP exceptions (Inbound Echo Request is needed)

    You can find these policies under

    Computer Configuration \ Policies \ Administrative Templates \ Network \ Network Connections \ Windows Firewall \ Domain Profile

    If the target computer is not a member of a domain then change the Domain Profile to Standard Profile.

    PDQ Deploy uses the standard Microsoft ports for SMB and remote administration. You can find a list of them here.

    Please let us know if you run into problems.

    I think a configured firewall is the better solution than just disable 😉
