“Microsoft’s latest update breaks [some] VPNs and there’s no fix [yet]”
Windows is getting worse and worse, but do we have to spin legitimate bugs as some nefarious plot?
It’s also very nice how this site tries to launch a new tab to ask to enable notifications.
Windows is getting worse and worse
and so is the press :( websites and content creators enshittification is as bad as other companies (one could even argue they have been among the first to do that)
Sure there is, abandon Windows.
Not at work, I can’t.
Sure there is, abandon Work.
I tried to turn in my buckets of thank yous at the bank but they didn’t take em. Gonna be windows for now
There’s no alternative, Linux doesn’t meet my needs as a PC user so I’m stuck with windows.
I guess you’ll have to accept your fate.
This seems like bullshit to me. I’ve not seen anyone complaining their VPN isn’t working. And any business with staff using VPNs would not be happy if they managed to let that update get applied.
I’ve been dealing with a VPN failure at work.
About 80% of my day has been lost due to access issues into the secure space I work, since about 6 days back.
Running Windows 11, is updated, VPN works perfectly
Glad I dumped Windows in favor of an OS that doesn’t suck.

Perhaps click bait, but based on MS’ own list of issues with April’s upgrade patchset.
Okay quick question::
All vpns?
Or is there a list of affected v unaffected??
The System’s VPN imementation is broken. All of them are broken.
So like, the 0 that use that implementation. Like really, IPsec? No openvpn support? No wireguard support? What is this, 2004?
Our sister company had their VPN broken by this and we had to switch to another system. Even though it wasn’t a particularly secure VPN (IPSec), the builtin Windows VPN was extremely reliable and convenience compared to shit like Pulse.
Wouldn’t uninstalling the update fix it?
I’m running windows and my nordvpn still works. So maybe this article shouldn’t even exist and the OP should lose all credibility when ti comes to anything technology related.

Vpns are working fine. This article is dogshit.
So because VPN works for you, it’s impossible for it to not work for literally anybody else?
I work for an MSP managing thousands of workstations and servers. I’m also the “VPN guy” so I deal with them constantly every single day.
Perhaps you should ask questions before making assumptions.
