Enhanced Firewall Issue

Looking through the threads, seems there's an issue with the Enhanced Firewall.
I am running SW version 20.2.3116 (build 20.2.5130.561)
Virus Def : 200401-0
UI Version : 1.0.511

My problem is that Enhanced Firewall is ON, the item is Checked in the Hacker Attacks section but main UI says "Enhanced Firewall is turned off". When I click the TURN ON button, it tells me "Enhanced Firewall is not available".

Same issue for me. Plus VPN now not working. I can't go to any online page once I turn VPN on.

Sanny, we have a work around.
Open AVG Internet Security program interface.
Click on Menu-->Settings-->Troubleshooting.  
Scroll down to  "Reset All Settings" section and Click on "Reset To Default" option.  
Please reboot the PC and check whether Firewall is Turned ON.
Keep us posted.
