How to fix the system error message: “Something went wrong” when running Hotspot Shield?

Now before we go through the steps, do keep in mind that the instructions below will only work if you’ve downloaded Hotspot Shield from www.hotspotshield.com and not from anywhere else. Now that we have all that cleared up, let’s get on with the steps, shall we?

Manually start Hotspot Shield

1. On your Windows computer, hit the Windows key and search for “Services.”

2. Next, look for Hotspot Shield, “Right-click it” and select “Start.”
