larrynose Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 Hello, Back again with another question! While removing some programs in my system (windows 10) I discovered tap windows 9.9.2 installed. I have no idea what it is...Since I did not install it, can I just uninstall it or am I messing up some unknown windows functionality by doing it? Thanks in advance.

V.T. Eric Layton Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 Have you ever installed/used a VPN service? Something like Cyber Ghost? If so, it probably installed this OpenVPN client on your system. Unfortunately, there are some bad articles/comments here and there via Google Search that claim this Tap-Windows can be utilized for illegitimate purposes. Click on some of the links in this "Tap-Windows" Google Search. It is a legitimate tool, though... https://www.google.com/search?q=tap-windows+windows+10&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8 https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/ManagingWindowsTAPDrivers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
