Can't open Google or other websites when your Trend Micro VPN is active? Follow these steps to solve the problem quickly.
Why can't I access websites with Trend Micro VPN?
If you're seeing a message that says "The connection to google.com is not secure," it's likely due to a problem with your VPN’s connection settings.
- The "wgclient" service may not be connected properly.
- Your network settings might be blocking the VPN.
How do I get my VPN to work with websites?
Here’s a quick guide to get you back online:
- Flush Your DNS: This clears out old and possibly incorrect internet address records from your computer. To do this:
- Open Command Prompt as administrator.
- Type "ipconfig /flushdns" and press ENTER.
- Check if you see a message that says "Successfully flushed the DNS Resolver Cache."
- Reset Winsock Catalog: Resetting Winsock fixes issues with your network connection settings. To reset Winsock:
- In the same Command Prompt window, type "netsh winsock reset" and press ENTER.
- Restart your computer to complete the reset.
