3. Add a firewall rule for incoming traffic to Fiddler.

You can create the firewall rule using either the command line or the Windows Defender Firewall GUI:

**Option A: Using netsh command (run as administrator):**

```cmd
netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="Fiddler for AuthHost Debugging" dir=in action=allow program="C:\Program Files\Fiddler\Fiddler.exe" enable=yes
```

If Fiddler is installed in a different location, adjust the path accordingly. Alternatively, you can create a port-based rule:

```cmd
netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="Fiddler Port for AuthHost" dir=in action=allow protocol=TCP localport=8888
```

**Option B: Using Windows Defender Firewall with Advanced Security:**

1. Open Windows Defender Firewall with Advanced Security (run `wf.msc`)
1. Click "Inbound Rules" in the left pane
1. Click "New Rule..." in the right pane
1. Select "Program" and click Next
1. Browse to your Fiddler executable (typically `C:\Program Files\Fiddler\Fiddler.exe` in a per-machine installation) and click Next
1. Select "Allow the connection" and click Next
1. Check all network types (Domain, Private, Public) and click Next
1. Give the rule a name like "Fiddler for AuthHost Debugging" and click Finish
