Permissions issues with wordfence

Wordpress 5.7.2
Wordfence 7.5.3
EC2 linux instance as server

So one day out of nowhere my site sends me an email from wordfence saying the firewall is deactivated. I checked on the wordfence menu and it is, and as I try to activate it, I can’t. It shows a pop-uo displaying error when trying to save. There also shows a bar at the top saying the wordfence firewall can’t be executed, and the configuration files are either corrupt or inaccesible for the web server, and I can trying rebuilding the config file entering some link. I entered some link, and there shows another error saying Wordfence can’t write in the ~/wp-content/wflogs/ files that WAF uses for storage. So I look for the Wordfence tool diagnostic to see if something else is going on and it shows 3 errors:
1 Filesystem / checking if web server is able to read ~/wp-content/wflogs: file “attack-data.pgp” can’t be read, file “ips.php” can’t be read, and file “config.php” can’t be read
2 Filesystem / checking if web server is able to write in ~/wp-content/wflogs : can’t write into files
3 Connectivity / connecting to site : wp_remote_post() test back to this server failed. Response was: 503 service unavailable.

I checked on .htaccess file to see Wordfence permissions. I get this code related to it:

# Wordfence WAF
<Files ".user.ini">
<IfModule mod_authz_core.c>
	Require all denied
</IfModule>
<IfModule !mod_authz_core.c>
	Order deny,allow
	Deny from all
</IfModule>
</Files>

# END Wordfence WAF

Now, I’m not sure if it should be like that as it seems to be denying access to files. I’m not a programmer nor a tech person, I’m just trying to build up my site from what I can learn through reading, so I would like some help to know why can’t I activate Wordfence firewall, why did it deactivate in the first place, and what can I do to activate it again and to keep Wordfence permissions right. Any ideas?
