HMA! Pro VPN Windows Client 2.8.1.10 Announcement

We’re very excited to announce the latest release of HMA! Pro VPN 2.8.1.10 (for Windows) and to get it into the hands of our users. This is our latest major release and will be available as an automatic update to all our users in the next coming weeks. You can also install this update straightaway if you prefer not to wait, by downloading the latest version from your VPN control panel.

In a nutshell, we have made stability a top priority across all our windows platforms. We have made significant improvements in fixing Windows 8 bugs, so users switching over to Microsoft’s latest operating system will have smoother ride using Hide My Ass!.

We’ve also reworked our load balancing messages, so that users are never left disconnected from our VPN when the client is trying to find the best server to connect to.
We have made many small tweaks to the user interface. Some of our favourites are:

• The client will automatically save what is typed into the ‘username’ and ‘password’ fields. There is no longer an additional step of clicking ‘connect’ to save your login details.
• If you like to test the same servers when doing a speed test, the client will now remember your choice from before, saving you time of having to tick the same servers every time.
• The ‘IP address change’ needed a better on/off switch, so we have now included a checkbox to quickly enable or disable the ip address change feature.

You can see the complete list of improvements and fixes found in this release in our forum here.

Please reach out with any thoughts or questions. We look forward to continuing development and making Hide My Ass! the best it can be.

We have not forgotten about our customers using Macs and we are now underway with new software for OSX. We’ll let you know here first as soon as it is ready.
