You haven't specified which firewall software you use.
1)Open your firewall software, it might have an icon in the taskbar.
2)There will be a section where it wil show all the programs with their various rules ie which are permitted to connect and which not
3)If you had accidentaly blocked a program from connecting search for the name of that program and double click it
4)Change all the the settings to Allow the connections or Permit the connections for that software.

You don't "edit" a firewall, you configure it. What exactly are you trying to do? And what type of firewall do you have?

Firewalls are used to protect computers and computer networks from unauthorized access by viruses, hackers and Spyware. Detailed information is available at
