I am using the Hotspot Shield software to connect the VPN of the organization I am working. It is frequently giving me ‘Hotspot Shield error code 1013’ on the screen. Also, the PC stops working for a count of seconds in between. What is this error?
The Reason For Error Code 1013 In Windows
Check if you had a smooth download and installation of the Hotspot Shield software. Error 1013 can occur if the download was corrupt or installation was not complete. The error may occur if any changes are made to the Windows registry after installation or if Windows System files get corrupt due to any virus. It can have many such reasons depending upon what action was performed.
To resolve this, options are as follows:
- Install all updates available for your Windows version.
- See if your PC drivers are up to date.
- Scan your PC for viruses.
- Repair respective entries in the Windows registry.
