Unable to start trial

I wanted to try the trial version of AVG VPN. Whenever I try to turn it on, it opens a window that asks me to start my trial. When I choose to start the trial, it "loads" saying it is activating the trial. After that it puts me back to the main screen where I can turn it on, but when I do it just opens the window again. I have tried reinstalling and rebooting. Could use some help

It seems that the program on your computer is unable to communicate with our server. In this regard, please try to subscribe the trial after some time or from a different device (if possible).
