Firewall has to be disconnected for internet access after Windows 10 update last night

Hi Bill,
I am sorry to hear about the inconvenience caused to you. Please check if AVG firewall is configured with below recommended settings or not.

Open AVG Internet Security->Menu->Settings->Components->Firewall->Customize->Network Profile and change it to Private.
Open AVG Internet Security->Menu->Settings->Components->Firewall->Customize->Policies->System Rules and set all rules to "Enabled".

Make sure the above settings are applied and let us know if the issue persist.

Trying to obtain assistance to activate the firewall as cannot utilize internet access with it activated (had to deactivate to allow email and internet). Appears I require a new update to work with the latest from Windows.
