Very simple app with variety of servers, including around 10 free options. Could be less of Ads on free version but generally worth it as the connection works fine

Hi,
We’re really sorry to hear about your experience.
We want to clarify that our app does not permanently damage browsers or prevent users from restoring their settings. The behavior you’re describing is typically related to an additional component (Planet Search), which may have been installed during setup — possibly by accident.
You can fully revert the changes by following these steps:
-Reset your browser settings to default (this will restore your search engine and homepage)
-Open Task Manager → Startup (Autostart) and disable "plupdater"
-End the "plupdater" process if it’s currently running
Please be assured — these changes are not permanent and can be undone.
If you’d like, we can guide you step by step to fully restore everything. Just email us at support@freevpnplanet.com— we’re always ready to help.
Best regards, Planet VPN team

DO NOT DOWNLOAD this vpn
DO NOT DOWNLOAD this vpn. Here's what they did to my laptop:
- hijacked my browser, replace default search engine (chrome) with yahoo
- changing chrome settings to advertise themselves
- randomly closed my chrome windows, I lost a lot of work this way
Worst vpn. NO wonder they got 2.6 stars
Edit - i downloaded this VPN from Microsoft store. There was no such installation process as they mentioned in the reply. The app launched directly

Hi Daniyal,
We’re really sorry to hear about your experience.
We’d like to clarify that during installation there is an optional step to install an additional component (Planet Search), which can modify browser settings. It’s possible this option was selected accidentally during setup, which may have led to the changes you described.
To resolve the issue, please try the following:
* Open Task Manager and go to the "Startup" tab (Autostart)
* Look for a process called "plupdater" and disable it
* Then check the "Processes" tab and end it if it’s currently running
* After that, go to your browser settings and manually switch your default browser and search engine back to your preferred option (for example, Chrome and Google)
This should stop the unwanted behavior and restore your normal settings.
If you need any help with the steps above, feel free to reach out — we’re happy to assist further.
Best regards, Planet VPN team.

Logging in is just broken in Chrome extension. Was locked out of my account for 10 days. Resetting the password 10 times in a row did not work. Support were able to resolve the login problem AFTER 3 MORE DAYS by providing new password WITH A PLAIN TEXT IN AN EMAIL. After about a week login stopped working again. Canceled immediately.
Server selection and speed is mid.

My thanks to Planet VPN support
I had a very negative experience with the paid version of Planet VPN and asked support to cancel my subscription. In response to my request, I was offered a different technical solution called Personal VPN. This time, everything worked flawlessly. In any case, I can count on this connection to the global network for a while. My thanks to Planet VPN support. To summarize: yes, overall, the internet situation is bad right now, and no VPN will save us if all international traffic is blocked, but any effective way to bypass blocking is all the more valuable. I recommend you at least try Personal VPN.

Your IP address is detected as a VPN, so some streaming websites may block access when a VPN is on. Unfortunately, many platforms have strict rules and advanced systems that identify VPN traffic.
