Pull request overview

This PR expands the AdGuard for Windows v8.0 App management documentation to explain the app routing/filtering model (compatibility list, exclusion lists, and handling of unknown apps), and adds a dedicated section describing the Filter unknown apps setting.

Changes:

  • Added a new section describing how routing, filtering, and HTTPS filtering decisions are made (compatibility list vs. exclusion lists vs. unknown apps).
  • Added a new Filter unknown apps section with UI screenshot and behavior breakdown.
  • Removed an older app-management screenshot near the top of the page.

💡 Add Copilot custom instructions for smarter, more guided reviews. Learn how to get started.

![Filter unknown apps *mobile](https://cdn.adtidy.org/content/kb/ad_blocker/windows/version_8/app_management/app-management.png)

The *Filter unknown apps* setting allows you to choose between two modes — a safe default one where only trusted apps are filtered and a manual one where you decide which apps to filter. It affects only new and unknown applications.

is there a way to convey it more clearly? my understanding was that the Filter unknown apps option is enabled by default and determines how AdGuard handles new apps that are not yet present in the compatibility or exclusion lists. and then we can describe each scenario:

  • when enabled: AdGuard automatically routes traffic...
  • when disabled: You will need to manually configure routing for new apps...
