Enhanced firewall and vpn not working since update

I was prompted to update my AVG security yesterday. Since then my enhanced firewall is not working ( will not switch on) and my VPN is not working either , says ‘not possible to establish a connection’.I cannot access the internet via google or the AVG secure browser.
I am not a computer expert but am working from home so really need to access the internet. Can anyone help me please?
Many Thanks
