Firewall page error
« on: April 27, 2020, 03:58:01 PM »
When i go to the firewall page it shows a message to turn on firewall but the firewall is already on and running .
Trying to click on the switch icon the page freezes at that point and will not allow you to do anything on that page.
If I close it all down and go in again the same occurs.
I Have a screen shot but do not know how to show it.

Hi,
What is your current application version?
see:https://support.avast.com/en-ww/article/Update-Antivirus

To add a screenshot, click on " Attachments and other options" below the message/reply box.

You can try to remove and re-add the firewall component.
