Bypass Censorship
Windscribe VPN for Windows provides unlimited access to a truly open, free Internet. Our strong encryption offers privacy and security, so you can navigate around censorship restrictions and unlock regional content. Firewalls are erected to block users from accessing certain websites in some countries, workplace and even schools.
