Windows 10 App Performance Issues
The ProtonVPN app does not run well for me on windows 10. Here are some issues I run into daily:
-
VPN does not auto connect on startup even though the setting to do so is enabled (has not worked once).
-
App freezes and nothing is clickable, forces me to end task manually in task manager and restart it because I'm not able to click the connect button.
-
Stuck "Loading" when connecting and never ends up connecting.
-
After some time, connected to a server, app freezes and nothing is clickable. Cannot disconnect because the button is not clickable. Forces me to end task manually in task manager and restart it.
One or more of these issues happen to me every single day and makes the app borderline unusable on windows 10. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the latest version and updated my OS to latest version. Has anyone run into these same issues? Are there any solutions?
