What to do if hamachi blocked the Internet. We solve the problem of connecting Hamachi to the network adapter. Problem with update

Many users use Hamachi for various purposes, the details of which we will not dive into today, since at the moment our goal is to help solve problems when this software does not start, performing independent troubleshooting. Of course, in most cases this operation ends in nothing, so the user needs to independently look for solutions to this error. The guides presented below will be aimed at getting rid of this nasty problem as easily and quickly as possible.

Almost always, self-diagnosis occurs due to incorrect operation of the services responsible for the correct connection of Hamachi to the network. Because of this, all our attention will continue to be focused on solving problems related specifically to services that interact in every possible way with the mentioned software. Let's start with the simplest and most effective method, moving in order to more complex and rare ones.

Method 1: Start the required services

From the very beginning, we recommend checking the functionality of the services. You can be almost one hundred percent sure that one of the important parameters is disabled, since, as mentioned above, a similar situation occurs due to a service failure. You can check and run them manually like this:

1. Run the utility "Run" by holding down the key combination Win+R, where in the input field enter services.msc and click on Enter or "OK".



2. Find it in the list with names . This is the main service responsible for the functionality of the software. Double-click on the name with the left mouse button to go to properties.



3. Here in the tab "General" set the startup type "Automatically" and apply the changes.



4. The same will need to be done with the service , because she is also directly related to Hamachi.



After making all changes, it is recommended to restart your computer to check the functionality of the services. If everything was resolved and the problem did not arise again, then it was a matter of a banal accidental shutdown. If difficulties recur, we recommend that you familiarize yourself with the following options for solving them.

Method 2: Cleaning the system with antivirus

This method is required for those users who have had the service shut down again after rebooting their PC. "Windows Management Instrumentation", and with it, accordingly, "LogMeIn Hamachi Tunneling Engine". This often depends on the action of the viruses that have taken over the device. You need to get rid of them using available tools - security programs, that is, antiviruses. You will find detailed instructions on this topic in our separate material at the following link.

After successfully cleaning the system, restart the service and check its functionality. If this doesn't help, and "Windows Management Instrumentation" still turns off, go to Method 7, where we will look at system recovery.

Method 3: Create a script to start the Hamachi service

Difficulties in starting the service that is responsible specifically for the operation of Hamachi are often due to trivial failures in the program or system, which cannot be solved by any methods. If you don't want to look further for solutions, create a script that simply restarts the service, allowing you to temporarily solve the problem. This method is called a “crutch” and does not correct the problem itself, but only temporarily relieves you of it.




However, if you want to completely and permanently get rid of the problem, we advise you to study the methods presented below, because they often turn out to be quite effective.

Method 4: Set up EXE security

Sometimes startup difficulties are caused by insufficient access level that the EXE file of the software in question receives. The fact is that with low trust, the program will not even gain access to its own service, which it installed on the system. Therefore, it is necessary to control this setting by performing the following steps:




After that, don't forget to apply the changes. Note that these actions are performed exclusively from the administrator account. If you have not yet logged into this profile, do so as demonstrated in our next material.

Method 5: Set up Hamachi service

Sometimes the service responsible for keeping Hamachi running simply turns off on its own. This happens due to conflicts between the OS and software, and is solved by a banal restart. You can set it to automatic mode using the settings configuration, which looks like this:




Now the service will automatically restart as soon as it shuts down. This will allow you to quickly resuscitate the situation and start using Hamachi without going into self-diagnosis mode.

Method 6: Reinstall Hamachi with Registry Cleaner

If none of the methods listed above brought any results, let's move on to more radical options. The first is to completely remove Hamachi and further clean the registry, which will allow you to reset absolutely all parameters. You will find detailed uninstallation instructions in the material below.

Now let's discuss how to clean the registry after removal, because usually quite important parameters remain there, which can again lead to failures.




After this, you must restart your computer in order to reinstall the software later.

– special software that allows you to build your own secure networks via the Internet. Many gamers download the program to play Minecraft, Counter Strike, etc. Despite the simplicity of the settings, sometimes the application encounters a connection problem with the network adapter, which is quickly fixed, but requires certain actions on the part of the user. Let's look at how this is done.

Now we will go into the network settings and make some adjustments to them. Let's check if the problem is still there, if so, we'll update Hamachi to the latest version.

Network connection settings on your computer

1. Go to “Control Panel” – “Network and Internet” – “Network and Sharing Center”.

2. On the left side of the window, select from the list "Change adapter settings".

3. Click tab "Additionally" and let's go to "Extra options".

If you are missing a tab "Additionally", let's go to "Arrange" - "View" and click on "Menu Bar".

4. We are interested "Adapters and Bindings". At the top of the window, we see a list of network connections, Hamachi is among them. Move it to the beginning of the list using special arrows and click "OK".

5. Restart the program.

As a rule, at this stage the problem disappears for most users. Otherwise, move on to the next method.

Problem with update

1. Hamachi has an automatic update mode. Very often, connection problems arise due to incorrect settings in this part of the program. In order to fix it, find the tab in the main window “System” – “Parameters”.

2. In the window that opens, on the left side, also go to “Options” – “Advanced settings”.

3. And then in "Basic settings".

4. Here you need to check the box next to "Automatic update". Restart your computer. Make sure the Internet is connected and working. Once started, Hamachi should automatically detect if there are updates and install them.

5. If the checkbox is present, and the new version has not been downloaded, go to the tab in the main window “Help” – “Check for updates”. If updates are available, update manually.

If this does not help, then most likely the problem is in the program itself. In this case, it makes sense to delete it and download the latest version from the official website.

6. Please note that standard removal via "Control Panel" not enough. Such uninstallation leaves behind various “tails” that can interfere with the installation and use of a newly installed Hamachi. It is necessary to use third-party software to completely remove programs, for example Revo Uninstaller.

7. Open it and select our program, then click "Delete".

8. First, the standard uninstallation wizard will launch, after which the program will offer to scan for the remaining files on the system. The user needs to select a mode, in this case it is "Moderate", and press "Scan"

After this, Hamachi will be completely removed from the computer. Now you can start installing the latest version.

Often, after the steps taken, the connection is made without problems and no longer bothers the user. If things are still going wrong, you can write a letter to support or reinstall the operating system.

While running the Hamachi program, designed to create VPN networks (virtual secure networks), the user may encounter the message “Incoming traffic is blocked, check your firewall settings.” This is usually due to the functionality of anti-virus programs and firewalls that block the correct operation of Hamachi, but there are cases when the cause of this dysfunction is the incorrect operation of the program itself. In this article, I will tell you what the essence of this dysfunction is, what are its causes, and how to fix the “Hamachi incoming traffic blocked” error on your PCs.

Use Hamachi to create VPN networks

Looking for the source of the problem

As you know, the Hamachi program is designed to create virtual private networks (VPN), allowing you to create secure networks on the Internet from remotely located computers, thereby simulating the connection between them on a regular local network.

This program is especially popular among users who actively use various gaming programs (Vikings, Red Alert 2, Dungeon Siege 3, Ludoria, etc.). Using Hamachi, you can play with each other online, and this is even when the official game servers are closed for some reason.

After I explained what “Incoming traffic is blocked in Hamachi”, let’s move on to the question of how to get rid of the error “Incoming traffic is blocked, check your firewall settings.” I recommend doing the following:

Conclusion

The appearance of the “Hamachi: Incoming traffic blocked” problem is usually caused by the functionality of the firewall and antivirus program blocking the incoming network connection of the user’s PC. To fix the “Incoming traffic blocked” problem in Hamachi, I recommend temporarily disabling your firewall and antivirus, and if this does not help, use the alternative tips I suggested above. Usually this allows you to normalize the operation of the specified program, and then enjoy the stable functionality of “Hamachi” on your PC.

“Judgment Day” has arrived and Hamachi is not connecting to the network. Why and what to do? First of all, the blame must be placed on the antivirus and firewall. Because after updating them, the exception settings may become lost (this may occur as a result of an incorrect shutdown of the PC). Therefore, we re-add Hamachi to the list of exceptions of the antivirus and firewall. Did it help? Then you are amazing! Enjoy the game with your friends.

Did not work? Let's reinstall!

Attention! Before installation, you must delete absolutely all files. Go to the Start menu, then to the control panel, look for the “Add or Remove Programs” item. We are waiting for the list of installed applications to load. Find Hamachi, click on it and select delete.

Let's check if there are any settings files left:

• Windows XP: Check the Program files folder for the presence of the Log me in hamachi folder. Found - delete!
• Win 7: Perform the action from the point above. Go to the folder C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local, also look for the folder and delete it.

Reinstalling the client. And this is not the end! After installing the new client, you need to configure the hamachi “Service”. Open “Control Panel” through the Start menu.

We look for the administration tab, open it and find the tab of the same name.

We look for a Hamachi-related service and set the startup option to “manual”. Turn on

After such a voluminous guide, Hamachi will connect to the network in any case, at least out of respect for you.
