I was running a previous version (not sure which one) and it indicated that it was time to update and it directed me to the mullvad page. I downloaded the installer and tried to run it but it wanted admin user and password. I have admin privileges, but none of the credentials were working. I was stuck in a loop and couldn't even close the installer. I had to kill it in task manager.

From here, the former mullvad client ceased to exist, I had no new client, and my computer's ethernet fully stopped working. It recognized an "unknown public network" from which it couldn't get an IP address. I tried running windows troubleshooting, restarting the ethernet controller, doing a full network reset, rebooting, but nothing. No internet.

I thought maybe there was a registry file somewhere that was preventing connection, so I ran Revo Uninstaller and wiped every trace of Mullvad from the machine, rebooted, still nothing.

My linux dualboot on the same machine still had internet, so I know it had to be an issue somewhere in windows. I finally downloaded the offline installer from another computer and then re-installed mullvad and now I have internet again.

Does anyone know what exactly went wrong, or how to fix it without having to re-install the vpn?

I got mullvad vpn not long ago, with my interest being in regards to privately accessing the internet while avoiding advertising/fingerprinting tactics. I realized though, that using the VPN on a browser with accounts closely linked to my identity probably would negate the purpose of this.

My thought now is to use my default browser for those sites that need a log-in, etc. with split tunnelling, and for all other uses going through the VPN and Mullvad's dedicated browser.

Does anyone have any feedback or advice as far as using these tools for privacy and anonymity? How does my plan sound?

Thanks

Yesterday I updated my client to the latest version and after that I can't use anymore wireguard. It only works with openvpn. Is anyone facing the same issue?

Updated Mullvad to 2025.6 today and all was well until I had to turn my computer on and off for unrelated reasons. Now Mullvad refuses to even TRY to connect to ANY server. It displays the error message:

Blocking Internet No servers match your settings, try changing server or other settings. The apps excluded with split tunneling might not work properly right now.

I have never gotten this error. The only setting I changed today was turning back on split tunneling and adding an application. It still doesn’t connect with split tunneling off. Why is this happening? Please help.

I'm seeing a strange install app that I didn't see on previous updates. Is this legit????

Apologizes in advance if this has already been discussed, but I'm wondering why Mullvad is sunsetting OpenVPN. Is it because Wireguard is better?

Just for those considering using Mullvad, for the second time in as months the Kill Switch failed (ie. Mullvad was trying to reconnect an the internet was still downloading without any latency for approximately 60-seconds).

Whilst Mullvad has a good reputation about their privacy policies, I am searching for other more reliable options.

Had anyone else encountered this issue and if so, what VPN do you now use in place of Mullvad?

I’m encountering persistent connectivity issues with my WireGuard VPN configuration using Mullvad. Despite Lockdown Mode being enabled and Mullvad's DNS servers explicitly configured, I'm experiencing:

• Random session termination (both UDP and TCP/443 modes)

• Intermittent DNS leaks during security testing

• Inconsistent performance across different networks

Current environment:

• Kali Linux (bare metal)

• Mullvad WireGuard (no OpenVPN tested due to penetration testing latency requirements)

• Standard ISP hardware

For those running WireGuard in high-throughput security testing scenarios, what configuration optimisations and obfuscation techniques have proven effective at preventing drops/DNS leaks while maintaining low latency – particularly when protocol fingerprinting is suspected?

essentially samsung admiited to passwords copied to clip board are in plain text. does that mean even our account numbers could have been vulnarable? since we mostly copy paste if we need to log in??

So hard to find other servers that worked as well as them. Time to start cycling and looking for a new server that worked as well as 204..

Hi

I'm new to Mullvad and I'm very satisfied I would like to know how to contact support for some questions but not by email.

It would be great if they added guides for Linux Mint and the possibility to download the Linux application in Flatpak.

I would like if they added servers in Rome (Italy).

Are there people from Mullvad who write in this subreddit?

Thanks

I've been using mullvad for years and changed computer recently. I downloaded multiple apps without any issue but somehow, I can't download mullvad. I was wondering if anyone else is having the same issue. (using the windows download)

My Mullvad browser shows the red snake screen on top of a YouTube video, providing me three options.

1. Allow the video
2. Allow YouTube
3. Block

Even if I select the option 1 or 2, the video still doesn't play and the red snake screen returns. What is causing the issue and how can I solve this?

Is there a way for me to use mullvad in a way that outside apps see the socks5 proxy ip (and has its trustscore) and after that traffic goes to mullvad and then to me? or can i only use either app->proxy->me or app->mullvad->me?

I know that it's not recommended to change the settings on Mullvad browser if you wanna have more privacy. But is that valid for the settings of Ublock origin as well? I will happily add some filters for example to disable the bothering cookie notices, but would that make my browsing less private?
