How to Properly Set Up a Free VPN on Windows 10 PC in 2023

We’ve seen a rise in the use of Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) in recent years, and the trend shows no signs of slowing down. More and more people want to bypass region restrictions, securely connect to their office network remotely from the comfort of their home, and play online games with servers in different countries. With a VPN, all of this is easy.

The problems arise when you start looking for the right VPN. Which one is the most efficient? The most secure? Should I go for a free installation or a subscription? Figuring out these things can take up valuable time that you simply don’t have. So why not create your own VPN and connect to it?

Windows comes with the built-in ability to act as a VPN server, for free. It does this using the point-to-point tunneling protocol (PPTP), and it can be confusing to set up if you’re not tech-savvy.
