How to add a port to the Windows Firewall
Open Control Panel from the Start Menu
Switch to classic view from the top left of the control panel (if you are not already)
Now click on ‘Security Center’, click on Windows Firewall (on the top left of the security center window)

Again, on the top left of the new window click ‘Turn Windows Firewall on or off’

Now on the new window (I guess this is why it is called Windows) go to the Exceptions tab

Now click the ‘Add port...’ button and on the new window (yeah.. again) enter the port name and port number and select the protocol (TCP or UDP) as shown below:

You can set which computers will be allowed to access that port by clicking the ‘Change scope...’ button. Another window (not surprised) like the one below will open:

Here you can set your options and IPs of which computers will be able to access this port.
Click OK and OK and close all the windows (which is going to take you some time with all those windows)
