    Simplewall and Windows Firewall Control are great free solutions.
    WFC includes some useful features but I prefer the simplicity of Simplewall.

    I tried portmaster but the experience was not streamlined for my use case - ask to allow or block outgoing connection from any new app.

    In short, all three are good solutions.

    A side note to standard windows firewall: I just discovered few days ago, to me an absolute NO GO feature: it has no rule prioritization, and this can be a real mess, so I think that any overlay (tiny, wcf, etc) of wf is a NO GO too.

    I use the overbloated (free) Comodo firewall, that has HIPS too and a virtual container (kind of sandboxie).
