There have been about 4-5 separate threads regarding this issue. I just thought I'd bring it to your attention, just so you would know if it happens to you.

Yup, after updating, FW was disabled. I enabled it but the settings inside are grayed out. I believe a new build will be released soon to address this issue

When that update occurs and BD's firewall is disabled is windows firewall enabled?
Good question Bryan, yes it is, from my post in the above thread link. Another member on the forum also confirmed that.

The fix has just been sent out. You may need to restart your device first, then try a right-click system tray icon update, and it should show the update happening incrementally, i.e. 32% 45% 78% etc, until it updates. A restart is not required.

Yup, just received it too. FW back to normal now. But build number still remains the same at 27.0.16.87

that's the question!
FWIW I had similar issue with ESET Premium a few months ago, ESET could not (did not) fix its firewall or the win firewall, ended up working with Microsoft techs to rebuild my win10. ESET is removed here. (no idea of current status of that issue).
