UPDATE: Got sorted. there's a notification in the lower-right tray that should pop up, which makes the situation clear (it's just on and doing its work in the background). But that notification didn't activate until 2 hours later. Leaving my obtuse questions up here in case someone else has the same situation. Thanks for the great tutorial. 😶 Do we use the ProtonVPN window as a browser, or do we port info somehow from there to a browser? Or will any browser we already had installed be covered by the VPN without doing anything further? Sorry for silly q's, but I've only ever used a browser-based proxy server.
I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart because recently I have been threatened to get doxed and it has actually happened to me before where all my internet goes out for days so I really want to thank you man and I hope this truly works
I was in the middle of installing this when a fucking tarantula was crawling across my wall so I ran out like a pussy and got my dad so I gotta do it in the morning
Hi Websplaining Apologies if this is a stupid question but I'm new to VPN. Can I use the VPN on any browser? I have Microsoft Edge but use other browsers ie Brave, Dissenter, & Tor. Will this VPN work with those browsers? Thanks for all you do & thanks in advance for your answer.
Hi Krypto, when you connect to a VPN such as ProtonVPN your IP address is masked by the server that you connect to through a tunnel. All your data is tunneled through that connection. Therefore any activity you do on the internet while connected to the VPN, whether that's playing a game or using a browser etc is encrypted by the VPN.
@@Websplaining Thanks for the clarification & I appreciate your quick response. I also got Proton email & used your other video as a guide so thanks for that as well. God Bless
Not sure if you reply to older vids buy hey… worth a shot. So I’m very lost on computers but I’m learning. After you do all of this you can just open any browser and have secure browsing?
I don't get it. I set it all up but then how do I get on the internet from the VPN screen? This is not helping me so will try another video, third, to understand how I can get to the internet...
the first 7 days proton will let you use their basic vpn which is not bad, after the the 7 days it will revert to the free program which is totally useless, because you will be restricted from most sites, which proton does not tell you, proton is being a little deceptive, letting you think that you will get a functional VPN for free
For some reason, when I download it, it won't automatically open. In fact, it won't show up in any of the folders either. I tried putting it on my desktop, my downloads, and the default like 2 times.
You can hover over those icons. However, I will name them for your convenience the directional arrows means that the server allows P2P traffic and the Onion icon is for the TOR network.
@@larryk2268 Hi Larry, if you Google both terms you can do your own due diligence in your own time, I hope me naming them aids you in your own research.
Great video .... Thank you Please can I ask if the free service will mean I can use the proton VPN on both my desktop iMac and my iPhone to protect both devices Thankyou again
Yup you can, keep in mind though, with the free plan, there is a limit to the amount of devices you can use Proton VPN on at the same time on one Proton account.
so i've connected to japan and i'm trying to use their disney+, but it won't let me? everytime i try, it always automatically goes to the great britain website. someone please help, i've been trying for the past hour ;-;

hi can you help me im trying to download protonvpn but every website i go to im having no luck at all getting it downloaded on pc before i think about putting it on my help so i need real help please
The free plan gives you three free servers. If the German server is not included in your free three servers provided with the free plan then you may need to upgrade to the plan above the free plan.
why every time I use ProtonVPN, after I'm done i disconnect it. Then, I start having internet issues mean my original ipv4 address has been erase. The only way i could get it back or fix the issue is by resetting my entire network with command prompt. hopefully it makes sense. any advice

Hi, is it possible to change which device I have Proton installed on? The laptop it was on is no longer working.
Yes, simply install the appropriate app/client on your new device and sign in to your Proton account.
so i created my account on that and then i closed all the tabs and then after I again open proton VPN and then how can I activate it ???
Basically my question is how to activate the VPN after closing all the tabs
I thought I followed your instructions but now it appears I have proton protection on my PC; but, not my fire stick.
Help!!!

what servers are we limited to on the free version? like when the trial runs out
Hi Julia, it may vary depending on your region, for me however it was the US, Japan, and Netherlands as the three free servers.
I cant cursor up and down on the screen with my firestick controller, therefore I can't click on what I need to for this installation! Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
I have a question: so you can use the free one after 7 days? or you can't use it anymore?
No just for the plus part, otherwise it's completely free

You just need to make sure you are connected to your chosen protonvpn server.
Where can we see or type phone website?
sir, ive already connected to osaka japan and still am unable to watch one piece series .
Try another server from the ProtonVPN server list.
Do I need to pay to use Germany because it's not giving me to the option to connect.
