Hamachi doesn't work - you can do that

With Hamachi you can simulate networks for LAN parties. If the program does not work, the service may not have started correctly. Find out in this practical tip what you can do about the error.

Hamachi not working - what to do?

• The service required by Hamachi may not have started correctly.
• To check this, enter "services.msc" in the search bar of the taskbar and confirm with [Enter].
• Then double-click on the "LogMeIn Hamachi Tunneling Engine" entry.
• Here, the "Start type" must be set to "Automatic" and the entry "Started" under "Service status".
• If this is not the case, you can start the service by clicking on "Start".
• If that doesn't help either, you can try running Hamachi as an administrator. To do this, right-click on the shortcut and select "Run as administrator".
• Basically, you should make sure that you have the latest version of Hamachi installed. You can find these in our download portal.
