Install and activate Hide My IP on Windows

Hide My IP works on Windows 10 (version 1809 or newer) and Windows 11. Windows 7, 8 and 8.1 use a separate installer. The main installer detects an older Windows and offers to download it for you.

Install the app

1. Download Hide My IP for Windows.
2. Open the downloaded file and follow the steps in the installer.
3. Hide My IP starts when the installer finishes. Later, open it from the desktop icon or the Start menu.

Enter your license key

Without a license key, the app works for free with a few locations. To unlock every location:

1. Click Unlock on the main screen. You can also go to Settings > Account > License key and click Enter key.
2. Paste your license key and click Activate.

To use a different key later, click Change Key.
