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.

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...
