Dear all
A couple of months ago l downloaded and installed Nord VPN. However, it crashes frequently when I initiate it. No messing, blue screen. . I think the longest I have been able to use it without crashing is 20 min.
I have two browsers instralled and it crashes with both. I am running Windows 10 Pro Vers 22H2.

Anybody know of any known incompatabilies that Nord has on Windows platforms? The fact that it crashes with two browsers, one being "Clean" (no add ons) makes me think it may be other software but what I'm at a loss.

I do run Malwarebytes vers 5.3 which can have a VPN function but the s'ware tells me it is inactive.

Cheers

Can't comment on a PC, but it is certainly not compatible with Google maps when using it through Android auto

Can you not download the Nord OpenVPN configuration files from your account and then set it up on your PC using the Windows OpenVPN program here: https://openvpn.net/client/client-connect-vpn-for-...

Nord wouldn't work at all on iPhone for me, after paying for the subscription it just blanks out and shows an endless loading screen.

Use Surfshark now and seems alright.

Curious, mine works just fine. Unlike Express VPN which didnt get on with Waze and Google maps both
EDIT: in fact it woulldnt even connect to Android Auto itself despite much nerdy fiddling

Mine works on a Mac, Apple TV and my android phone without hassle or fiddling

It also allows me to watch F1 TV which other VPNs struggled with

Cheers
