NordVPN Plus, 1-Year, VPN & Password Manager Software Bundle, Digital Code

* Have you had any experience with this utility before? This is the start of my 5 th year using this utility, and I feel more secure with this repeatedly purchased software. Just note that when going online, use HTTPS, the secure protocol. The 'doubling - up' on protection is better, yes, but not really required unless you're roaming and computing? My Dell 8500 XPS, i7, bought new on 26 October 2012, the day Windows 8 was released to the public, struggles somewhat with this utility. It can take several minutes to connect at times. This is due to my PC's age. You will be ok with a newer by a few years PC. It just popped up in my email that an advanced warning about the NordVPN licence was to expire. So I chose to buy it through Amazon. Amazon quickly - less than a few minutes- sent me an email with its activation code. I printed this out and switched from my Standard account to an Administrative account to install this. If this is your first experience with NordVPN, you need to set up an account with them. As a repeat customer, I logged in to my account. I found that my account wasn't registering that I had purchased through Amazon. Print out the Amazon Digital Delivery Confirmation in your email account, the one with the activation code on. Look at the bottom of the printout for this link. It says Go to my.nordaccount.com/activate and follow the prompts. Enter the activation code. I had bought my new one before the previous one ended. So scroll down to see 'skip this for subscription' and download the options. If you've downloaded this already, then just select download again, and it sets it up for you. * What is it like? The G.U.I. is redesigned and has performance updates. The two features of Threat Protection and File Sharing I turned off. The first stopped my YouTube Premium account from accessing its services. There are features under Threat Protection Pro: Anti-Malware, Advanced Browser Protection, and Advanced Tracker Blocker. Each of these three main operations has several subsettings to fine-tune your desired responses for your web sessions. These can be turned off as well as on. I am trying these again, as before they fought with YouTube Premium content, and it was better to turn these off. It's been three or more weeks since using its security settings on, and they are working without faults so far. If you see a tiny red dot twice on the NordVPN G.U.I. on its left-hand side, it's prompting you that an update is available, and you can manually update this now. NordVPN shuts down. Then restarts with the new edition running now. Based on previous ownership for two years before this version, this is expected to provide better security and performance fixes. A great feature is called Dark Web Monitor. This watches if your information becomes exposed on the dark web. My speed is usually close to 10 Meg / Sec slower using NordVPN and when not using it. Every few months, a new version is automatically downloaded onto my PC. It sensibly has the features turned off when downloaded. You have a choice to activate the features or not. * Problems and their solution? On rare occasions, NordVPN occasionally stopped responding in Windows 10. I investigated the support files on the NordVPN website, which, when applied, helped me sort out the problems independently. If you cannot get the application to appear on the desktop, * Go to the application listing. And find and click on 'NordVPN Diagnostic', and let it respond. If you are working in a standard account, you may be requested to enter your password to authorise this change. * If it's still not working, see and select in the Application tree, 'NordVPN Diagnostic', then click on 'Network Flush'. Reboot. It's useful to reboot after clicking on EACH of those. As it will not work as designed if you do not reboot after each operation. * And try the application again. If this is retested, does not repair the problem, then click and select from 'NordVPN diagnostics' and click on 'Reset the App'. And then reboot. * If it still will not work, you need to go to your Administrative level account, 'Control Panel', select 'Programs and Features', and then click on and uninstall this application. Then click on and download from the NordVPN website the latest ' NordVPN installer for Windows.' And install this again. These methods are from the help files provided by NordVPN and have worked for me. Just another word. I had to apply a recovery of a system image on 26 April 2026, of an April system image, and my NordVPN licence was not recognised. I was only given another two-year subscription. I declined. These tips I suggested didn't work this time. I didn't check whether I could download from NordVPN. So I could have tried to download and check. I could have made a mistake and not checked. I've bought from AVG VPN and am using this instead. * Summary The utility makes for a more secure online session. Its most protective use is when on a laptop and in a public unencrypted WiFi network, like a cafe, an airport or a cinema. My cousin put me on VPNs. Paying for a VPN, such as NordVPN, makes for a more secure online session. It's better to use a paid one than a free one. Even the premium antivirus, you know the ones, can have a flaky free VPN. I recommend buying a subscription to such services for reliable protection.

Purchased this at a massive discount and it’s been an excellent decision. It provides peace of mind by helping keep all our family devices safe online, which was the main reason for buying it. Setup was straightforward and it works well across multiple devices, making it ideal for family use. Given the level of online protection and the price we paid, it offers fantastic value for money. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking to improve their online safety at a great price.

good quality VPN but with connection issues to a few of the servers, a lot of them UK - this happened to me more often than not, but has improved in the last couple of weeks (unsure how or why) presumably down to popularity, but ive been having to reconnect often enough using the VPN program and the browser extension simultaneously might be causing conflict; unsure why this is offered in abundance if that is indeed the case otherwise, a solid VPN and loving the meshnet file transfer feature - you can send files between your devices with ease, and security, without the need for google drive and the like overall, i'm happy with the year subscription at a decent price - and plan to resubscribe once that's up recommended

It is a must to have when travelling and accessing the Internent from unknown providers. The speed and compatibility are fine, never had a problem. The speed is slower than the broadband, but with WiFi there is almost no difference.

Sorry Nord, but I can't rate your VPN. One pc it wouldn't go on at all, something wrong with the .net thingermajig, and on the other it takes awhile to kick in, and once it has it pops up across your full screen. I've searched and tried everything to stop this happening but in the end I had to disable it. When I tried to return it, which really meant just switching them off, I was told I had to return it to the seller, gave up in the end. I'm blind so things like that get the better of me. Gone back to McAfee, turns on every time, and it's working in the background.

Nord is the de-facto industry standard in VPNs. Works well on an Apple iMac with the latest Tahoe operating system. Allows me to download whatever torrents I want, that's all that needs to be said really.

Great item and works perfectly and for the price I highly recommend this item Excellent value for money Buy it yearly

I originally bought this just as a VPN which performs great. However when I upgraded to ‘Complete’ it became quite complex. It was interfering where it shouldn’t be on my Windows PC (in conjunction with Defender) and have uninstalled it completely from my iPhone because it was unnecessarily intrusive. Have reinstalled Bitdefender on both devices now which isn’t perfect by any means but more stable. I still use NordVPN on my SmartTV which works fine
