Some ExpressVPN Windows app users may encounter DNS leaks while running antivirus programs like AVG. These antivirus programs may cause your computer to use other DNS servers that are susceptible to DNS leaks.

To resolve this problem:

1. Ensure DNS is set to Automatic

  1. Open the Windows Run command.
  2. Type „ncpa.cpl“ and hit Enter.
  3. In your network connections window, right-click on your main internet connection and click Properties.
  4. Select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) or Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv6) (whichever is checked).
  5. Click on Properties.
  6. Select Obtain DNS server address automatically and click OK.
