ExpressVPN has released a new app interface. If your app interface does not match what is shown below, update your ExpressVPN app.

This guide will show you how to restore your internet connection on Windows if your internet stops working after disconnecting from ExpressVPN.

Note: It is rare to lose internet connectivity after the VPN has been disconnected. For the quickest resolution, please contact the ExpressVPN Support Team for immediate assistance.

Preliminary check

If you are unable to access the internet when disconnected from ExpressVPN, you might have enabled Network Lock. Network Lock protects your traffic by cutting your device’s internet connection if the VPN suddenly disconnects.

To resolve the issue, you can disable Network Lock.
