What to expect to see in capture file when Windows firewall is ON ..?

I am observing SYN, SYN-ACK, ACK, and the FIN-ACK. At the bottom of the trace is FIN-ACK retransmission.

I'm not a windows guy, but having checked it seems to be switched ON.

Two-way communication seems open given the source and destination IPs appear cap file. I also see a single TLSv1 "Client Hello" containing 517 bytes, but nothing returns back for that.

I am suspecting that Windows firewall is allowing the handshake at Layer4, but blocks anything upwards (OSI) from there...

Any comments would be appreciated.
