After todays software update of Freedome VPN the program fails when I hit the protection on button. The message says: "Error - Something wnt wrong. We are sorry"

I have no idea why and what do to do to fix this issue. Ive tried to reboot computer, remove and reinstall software but with no difference. Where can I download old software? How to fix this issue? When will F-secure push an softwareupdat adressing this issue??

    Hello,

     

    Just as my own feedback (I'm also only F-Secure user):

     

    --> with my experience Freedome still work after update;

     

    --> but looks like that there is global trouble:

    https://community.f-secure.com/t5/F-Secure/Update-from-Freedome-v1-2-to-2-4/td-p/102144


    One of knowledgebase articles about next points:

    https://community.f-secure.com/t5/F-Secure/Freedome-for-Windows-requests/ta-p/77951

    another noted topic with information that reinstallation for Freedome will trigger multiple TAPDrivers. Maybe possible to re-check such meanings and check -> if FreedomeTAPDriver is listed under network adapters, that it's active and with good properties.

    Possible that such trouble based on certain system security configuration and requirements for such drivers.

     

    Maybe possible to contact direct F-Secure Support channels (chat as example):

    https://www.f-secure.com/en/web/home_global/contact-support

    potentially it should to boost up situation, but maybe not required and any official F-Secure Staff with abilities to perform own research and investigation (or if someone already did ask Support about situation).

     

    Thanks!

    Hi atta,

     

    May I get the following information in order to further narrow down?

     

    1. What is the OS of the device in which you see this error?

    2. Did the error pop up after an upgrade? Or out of a sudden?

    3. Was Freedome working normally before this without any error?

    4. What is the current version of Freedome installed on the device?

    Hei

    Answers to your questions😊

    1. Windows 10

    2. The error happened stright after a software update of Freedome VPN. And I get the error message after everytime I try to activate protection. And the protection shuts off.

    3. Freedome worked flawless before

    4. I will chech later. But it automaticly upgraded to the latest version
