We recommend having your VPN on whenever you're browsing the internet or using public WiFi to keep you safe from threats online. You can set up your VPN to connect automatically instead of manually turning it on every time you use your device, so you always have protection when browsing the web. This setting is off by default.
To turn on auto connect:
- Open the Desktop Security app.
- Click Settings in the sidebar, then click VPN.
- On the VPN settings page, toggle on Auto connect VPN.
- Windows users can customize when the VPN auto-connects by toggling on When app is launched or When connecting to untrusted networks.
Your computer now automatically connects to the VPN when you power it on. To turn off this setting, return to the VPN settings page and toggle it Off.
