Delete auto edit firewall rules

Newbie ✭
Hello Everbody
I'm using TZ105W entry-level device and the firmware version is 5.9.2.13-7o. I couldn't delete auto-added rules, especially the VPN rules. Also, there is no "Enable the ability to remove and fully edit auto-added access rules" option on the diag page. I disabled checkboxes on the ZONE page for rules and there are no options on the VPN page
Can you provide me with how to remove auto-added rules
Regards

@oturkan enable the Option "Disable Auto-added VPN Management Rules" on the Internal Settings Page, this enables you to delete most of the Rules you listed above.
The Appliance needs to be restarted for this, I tested it a minute ago and got black looks from my daughters for the interruption at home 😀
There is not a single default Rule which I could not remove.

@oturkan I don't have any Gen5 running anymore so I can't check, but what Rules exactly you like to delete, then I might give you a hint where they are coming from? Did you already restartet the appliance after changing the internal setting?
VPN-wise I assume you're worried about these management rules? IMHO they can't be deleted, but there is an internal setting which might fit "Disable Auto-added VPN Management Rules.".

@BWC thank you for your response. I have attached a couple of setting screenshots from my device. You can see the VPN rules that I tried to remove. According to the below document "Enable the ability to remove and fully edit auto-added access rules" should be in Firewall Setting
