Blocking Ubisoft Connect via Windows Firewall
Ubisoft regularly updates their launcher and closes known exploits.
To ensure stable offline operation, you must block Ubisoft Connect from accessing the internet via Windows Firewall.
What to Do:
8.1 — Launch Ubisoft Connect and minimize it (do not close).
8.2 — Open the Windows Firewall and block the following processes:
🗂 Find these executable files:
• UbisoftConnect.exe
• uplaywebcore.exe
• upc.exe
Default path:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\
How to Set Up the Firewall:
1. Open the Start Menu → type Windows Defender Firewall and launch it.
2. Click on Advanced Settings (on the left).
3. In the Outbound Rules section, click New Rule.
4. Choose Program → click Next.
5. Browse to the executable file path listed above.
6. Choose Block the connection.
7. Apply the rule to: Domain, Private, and Public networks.
8. Name the rule (e.g., “Block Ubisoft Connect”) → click Finish.
✅ Make sure you repeat the same steps for all three files:
• UbisoftConnect.exe
• uplaywebcore.exe
• upc.exe
If everything is done correctly, a new firewall rule will appear.
Now proceed to the final steps.
Final Launch
9. Open Steam (which you previously switched to offline mode and minimized).
Launch the game via Steam.
An error message will appear — click Skip.
10. The game will launch — you’re ready to play 🎮
❗️ Do not close Ubisoft Connect — just keep it minimized.
❗️ After finishing your session, do not shut down your PC. Use Sleep Mode instead.

⭐ Enjoy your game! ⭐
