Somehow, we do not understand each other. From begging I told you that your solution does not work. There were NO blocked communication in Network protection troubleshooting (NPTrouble). That's why I tried to intensify logging and tried to see anything in NetProtection logs as it worked before. I turn on full logging and nothing appears there. Fortunately I did screenshot yesterday. Before, exactly same application blocks have appeared immediately. I ran application in 20 secs I got error with connection problem. I turn off ESET Firewall application connection works fine, so it's clear firewall blocked it. Let's find out what is blocked. In next 20 secs I clicked Tools->LogFiles->Network protection logs -> minute ago there was log aplication xyz blocked. Then right click and don't block similar events in the future. Problem solved. I'm happy with ESET firewall functionality. Tens of times I solved problems in minutes. Yesterday, same application same problem. No logs in NetProtLogs. OK lets try new feature NPTrouble and nothing, no logs (which screenshot you've showed me afterward couple of times) . So lets ask in ESET forum/ support, what was was changed in new version and what I'm doing wrong. And next tens of minutes wasted with some AI replies like that it has to be in NPTrouble, even I wrote couple of times that No, it was not. And again you sent me same post again... So dear Marcos, I know that you have some workflow for replies etc... But it's enough. There is something buggy is in ESET. It WAS NOT asked to block/allow app in interactive mode. It DID NOT show anything in full logs and in your lovely NPTrouble. After one hour of wasting with post here, it suddenly poped-up I included it to rules. I would do it manually, but did not know which app from 30 another is blocked. Unfortunately I did not get simple answer to my questions form first post and I don't care now. I conclude that new version of ESET in interactive mode can NOT handle properly logging and also interactive setting of firewall. I, as a ordinary user, have to deal with it and never waste of my time on forums. Thank you for your time and you can consider this topic as solved.

Just now, after one hour of blocking, ESET finally popup interactive firewall window with blocked application and it is finally added in rules... But I think it should not be correct behavior for good antivirus to wait one hour, when the code notices that he is blocking something. And in NetProt logs still nothing (and of course in Troubleshooting wizard either)... Is it strategy for ESET remove this functionality from users?

As I wrote in my first message in Troubleshhoting wizard there are zero blocked application. Everything what appears there is unblocked. And does not have effect on blocked communication. The info there is very general, in NetProt logs there were exact precise information (program/port). So back to my main question, how to set up configuration to let NetProt logs to be filled again?

Hi, I upgraded ESET endpoint security to version 7.3.2041 and switched firewall to interactive mode. Some basic communication pop-up and I allow all of the communication. One of the programs is communicating on different ports with sub-application. And these are blocked without any trace in rules or in Troubleshooting wizard. Before I simply went to tools->Log files-> Network protection logs and desired blocked communication was there. Simple right click and I unblocked it. Question of seconds to solve problem. Now the Network protection logs are empty. So clearly logging was restricted and I've tried to reopen it again in Advance setup->Tools->Diagnostics-> Advanced Logging-> Enable Network protection advanced logging. But no success, not even one drop to Net logs. So why are my Log files-> Network protection logs empty? How to intercept blocked communication by firewall? What should I do to get proper info to Network protection logs back again as it was before. Thanks in advance for reply.
