I understand the inconvenience.
The cursor on AVG Secure VPN has to be moved in-order to turn on the protection.
Please follow below mentioned steps to check whether it activates AVG Secure VPN protection:
1) Open RUN command by pressing Windows and R keys together on your keyboard.
2) On RUN window, type as "services.msc" without quotes and press Enter.
3) On services window, search for "AVG Secure VPN"
4) Right click on it and select "Start" or "Restart"
Open AVG Secure VPN and try to turn on the protection. Keep us informed about the status.

Hi, hopefully someone can help… Within the past week we have been bombarded by spam on our emails and pop ups on most devices in the house. We have a P.C, three laptops and several other mobile devices accessing the home WIFI network. Our tenant told us that her laptop camera had been hacked and that she could no longer access any of her secure banking sites.
I was told a VPN would be ideal so I purchased the AVG VPN as an add on to the free anti-virus we already had. (We also currently have the 30 trial of the internet security product.)
I paid, downloaded, accessed and now I have reached a screen that tells me "YOUR PRIVACY IS NOT PROTECTED" - There's an on/off switch with an explanation to turn on to encrypt what I do online.
It won't switch on though…
The option to change the location works perfectly but the switch does nothing- it just stays in the off position. Am I missing something?
Oh and, as you can most probably tell… I'm not exactly a computer boffin. If I do eventually figure out how to turn this thing on, is a VPN it something I should leave on constantly? Does it just need to be activated on the PC or on each device too?
Thanks in advance.
