Easily allowing or denying internet access in KIS - treggi - 07 March 19

I changed from Kaspersky Internet Security to free Comodo Internet Security, because the most important thing a firewall has to do for me is asking me if a new program may connect to the internet or not. In Kaspersky I had to go deeply into the menue with many clicks to set a rule for a new program. Tha t was very annoying to me. Comodo asks me with a pop-up window and I can make a decision with only one click.
I would like to switch back to Kaspersky because of the better anti-virus. Does anyone know a trick to simplify the prcedure of setting a rule for a certain program in Kaspersky IS ?

Yeah, to access to the "Application Control -> NetWork Rules" there are different ways/paths, but in all cases it takes some mouse clicks...

1.- Being in main product GUI Window -> More Tools -> Manage Applications -> Application Control -> Manage Applications -> find the application and via NetWork column -> Deny.

2.- Mouse right click over the green shield icon in Windows Task Bar -> Settings -> Protection -> Application Control -> Manage Applications -> find the application and via NetWork column -> Deny.

3.-Similar to point 2, but accessing to FireWall -> Configure Application Rules -> find the application and via NetWork column -> Deny.

4.- Mouse right click over the green shield icon in Windows Task Bar -> Tools -> Application Activity -> find the application and mouse right click -> Application Rules -> NetWork Rules -> Action column -> Deny.

Thanks for showing me 4 different ways, but for my taste they are all too long. Too many clicks needed.
