dotPeek's network activity
dotPeek may use your network connection for several purposes.
Purpose | Description and configuration | Addresses and ports |
|---|---|---|
Look for updates | dotPeek can detect available updates and suggest downloading new versions. To disable automatic checks for updates, clear the Download the list of available updates checkbox on the page of dotPeek options Ctrl+Alt+S. |
|
Send out anonymous usage statistics | dotPeek can collect and send out some information that helps us find bottlenecks and improve the quality of the product. All information is sent anonymously. To enable or disable this activity, use the Participate anonymously in the Feedback program checkbox on the page of dotPeek options Ctrl+Alt+S. | |
Download PDB and symbol files | In order to work with original sources when navigating compiled code dotPeek may need to download PDB and symbol files from symbol server. You can disable that, in which case dotPeek will have to decompile locally available assemblies. To toggle the access to symbol servers, use the Allow downloading from remote locations checkbox on the page of dotPeek options Ctrl+Alt+S. | |
Open online documentation | In many places of the dotPeek user interface, you can click the '?' icon or press F1 to open the corresponding page of the online documentation. |

Normally, no additional modifications in the firewall configuration are necessary. In case of any difficulties, adjust firewall settings so that dotPeek can access the network. You can also adjust the proxy settings for dotPeek's internet connection on the page of dotPeek options Ctrl+Alt+S.
