order allow,deny
deny from all
allow from YourIP

About filtering the access to /combu/admin, since you said that your server is running Windows Server then you could filter the access in Internet Information Services (IIS) with the feature "IP Address and Domain Restrictions", I think that this setting can be applied also to a specific folder (the one that is currently selected on the left panel tree) so in the tree make sure to select the "admin" folder and then click this feature.

In the panel opened by this feature you can click "Add Allow Entry" at top right corner and specify your current IP address (you can know what's your IP for example here: https://www.whatismyip.com)

Then click "Edit Feature Settings" and select "Deny" for "Access for unspecified clients".

Combu3 is not a  website  but a game server,  I am not sure if I should buy these.
