just everytime i start computer and freedome starts with it, it says that new version is available, and choocing yes opens web page that starts to download freedome.exe, but i cant open that file, nothing happens.
I have updated it before and then it worked no problem
Im using old version no problem. Maybe windows 10 somehow blocks me running it

no messages, just nothing happens, have been trying to run file with freedome closed too, and killing process and then running it too, also tried compatibility modes as well as run as administrator ofcourse, im thinking windows has been getting lots of heavy updates lately so maybe theres the reason, i can still try to re install software that will most likely help.

Hello,
Sorry for my ask and suggestions;
But do you able to re-check small points?
--> Does there work any other executable files under your system?
Do you able to launch any of .exe-files?
--> Do you able to re-check about Freedome installer (do you get it from official website?) by rightclick for freedome.exe (installer file), than choose 'Properties' and check if there can be 'blocking notification' under view (Windows usually able to give such 'byte' for downloads and some times it can be a reason for trouble with launch application); if it such situation - it should be visible for you (if you do not see anything wrong - so this is not trouble-situation or reason; if there can be such notification under properties-window - maybe you have to use unblock button);
--> Does there possible that under system installed some other security software, which block running Freedome? Or what if there disabled UAC under your settings (?!) - I not check it with Freedome (should require administrator rights probably for installing), but some software not possible to launch with such setting (even with administrators rights launch-option);
Sorry for suggestions.
Thanks.

In somewhat reason there is Nvidia library (?); Just as suggestion:
Do you able try to re-install NVIDIA drivers for your videocard (or install fresh driver for your NVIDIA videocard, if it indeed can be under your computer)?
// later added: brief search for this .dll give results that it can be related (and as potential compatible trouble also?!) with OpenGL.
Which maybe used by F-Secure Freedome.
At least there also have next topic:
https://community.f-secure.com/t5/Home-Security/Freedome-upgrade-required-OpenGL/td-p/76858
and such article under Knowledgebase (generally HowTO/FAQs as Näsäviisas more properly called it)

Will be good if you back with feedback-result.
During brief search with Google about this library-dll there also next 'recent' topic:
https://steamcommunity.com/app/466560/discussions/0/135513901700812255/
Where says that (at least) something which can be related with 'such trouble' was based on 'latest' Nvidia drivers. Which maybe already not latest and current ones should be with 'fixed'-situation; If not (and try with updating/installing latest available for your NVIDIA Drivers do not fix situation) - you maybe able to re-check about certain drivers (as example, some of previous ones; for my videocard there available four builds for latest two months) ;
// ALSO LATER ADDED:
My suggestion about UAC was mainly with meanings that if under your system it already with lowest-setting (as UAC disabled) - such setting can be a troublereason. And not like suggestion to try disabling UAC.

So, just do not forget back UAC to normal (Security and Safe) mode-level after your brief check steps (if you did not back proper protection level already, of course)!
