I tried to browse sites and any http request ended as time out. I installed the newest version (1.2.74).ġ)Installation OK, restarted machine (Win 10, ver 1607)Ģ) After restart I ran NordVPN.exe and made a connection to one of the servers. Without Glasswire I was able to use NordVPN without any problems for the past 2 days (since the uninstall).

I will try SysInterlas and register later as need to study it first or please read my post if you can come up with better solutin now.
NORDVPN DNS HOW TO
The article above showed this method but here’s a more detailed article on how to use Process Monitor to monitor a program to see if it is changing any or one specific registry key: You can also use Microsoft SysInternals Process Monitor to monitor all registry changes made by GlassWire if you are sure that GlassWire is making the changes. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\Tcpip\Parameters You can compare the default with your adapter/interface specific settings: In the registry, the default is stored under this key with the name “DhcpNameServer”. You might also have to check your DHCP settings when you have the problem because they might have changed and automatically assigned the new DNS server addresses. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\Interfaces So if I monitor this key I can see what is changing them: The DNS server IP addresses on my system are stored in the following registry key under the name “NameServer”. If you can provide downgrade of Glasswire like version 1.2.73 or even earlier I would test it.

I use NordVPN as installed app (when trying to fix the problem I used about 4 different versions, I was even provided by new beta from NordVPN), UDP protocol, IP4, DNS with VPN on - 78.46.223.24, 162.242.211.137.
NORDVPN DNS INSTALL
I am really sorry about details like I said I have limited free time, I will try install Glasswire back on my 2nd machine and try to go step by step and document it to be precise because some details I do not remeber I spent with it till early morning. I uninstalled Glasswire,restarted and the problem was solved. To prove it I have another machine with Win10 and Glasswire and this machine has almost no other apps and there was also the problem. When I killed them, set auto DNS, flushed DNS I was able to browse without any problems. So I open system manager and looked at running processes and even Glasswire was closed I found out 2 running processors for Glasswire - monitor and one more. So I killed Glasswire (exit app) but still the problem perstisted. Then I set adapters DNS settings to auto again, flushed DNS via command line and I was able to browse about 5 sec then again DNS were changed or etc. Normally Glasswire notifies when new DNS is set and it happened Glasswire showed it but not everytime. Then after few moments when I checked adapter settings there were again the fixed IPs of DNS even Glasswire didnt noticed the change. When I changed it to auto it remained till I used NordVPN app and connected to any server. We found DNS problem as when I looked at adapter settings there were set fixed DNS IPs. So I blamed NordVPN for sure and contacted their tech support.
NORDVPN DNS UPDATE
I am not sure about the date but I figured out that the only main changes I made were Glasswire update and NordVPN update.
NORDVPN DNS WINDOWS 10
About two weeks ago started my problems to connect on Windows 10 machines ( other machines without a problem). I am using NordVPN for more than a year without many problems on many devices (landroid, win7, win10). I do it in my free time and to be honest I spent lot of hours to fixing it so I would appreciate if anybody else could go with this problem because i do not have so much free time. I would really like to believe it is not Glasswire problem but the only solution which worked was to uninstall Glasswire.
