    Windows 10 Cumulative Update KB4338819 messed up my VPN software (Hotspot Shield)


    When I installed Windows 10 Cumulative Update KB4338819 on my PC my VPN software stopped working and would not launch. Uninstalled update and VPN started working again. First time I installed update I downloaded the standalone update. I reinstalled update through windows update and the VPN stopped working again. Uninstalled the cumulative update and the VPN started working again. The VPN is hotspot shield. This particular update is messing up PC's with hotspot shield. The Only fix to getting pcs with hotspot shield to start the vpn working again is to uninstall update. If You have hotspot shield on your windows 10 PC do not install this update because it causes hotspot shield to stop working and not launch on startup. Normally I would say install updates as soon as possible but I don't recommend installing this update on your windows 10 pc if you have hotspot shield vpn installed on your windows 10 pc. Because the software will not launch on startup if this update is installed. Microsoft needs to fix this.

    :)

    HotSpot Shield

    Hi thomlyons,

    To uninstall HotSpot Shield you need to disable the VPN profile first. If you don't know how, please contact HotSpot Shield support for assistance. Once you have disabled the VPN profile follow the steps below to uninstall the app.

    1. Go to the app list and look for HotSpot Shield.

    2. Touch and hold the app.



    3. Then tap uninstall.

    Sincerely,

    Hotspot Shield VPN Accusation


    Used Hotspot Shield few years ago. Greatly effected speed and was difficult to remove. Not surprised about this accusation.

    Hotspot Shield


    Hotspot Shield is also affected. Possibly a compromised API that the VPNs are using?
