Set Firewall to allow access to ASP.NET application

I have two computers on the same LAN (via router). One computer has an ASP.NET application installed. I can run this application from the 2nd computer only if I set the Windows Firewall for Public Networks OFF. I don't want to set the Firewall OFF for any application but only for this particular ASP.NET app. How do I do it? Where do I specify in the Firewall to allow just one ASP.NET app?

Thank you in advance for any help.

In Windows Firewall, make sure that the rule 'World Wide Web Services (HTTP Traffic-In) is turned on. This worked for me.

Is it application hosted in IIS or is it self hosted? Can you access it via a web browser 

    http://localhost/<your_application_Name>

should be port 80 then.

You might need to run command promt and "netstat -a" to find the port otherwise. If you know the port add the inbound rule for it in the firewall.
