The NordVPN on my pc just popped up a notice that there is an update available (version 6.46.5.0 , to be precise). I prefer to download the install file and do the installation myself (I disconnect NordVPN, then I shut down the app, then I uninstall NordVPN and then use the installer to install the new version). I had many issues in the past whenever updating via the app itself. I’ve done it this way for over a year now and have not had any problems of any kind.
I have used this link for the longest time, and all I ever have to do is simply change the version number in the URL to whatever the version number is of the new update.
https://downloads.nordcdn.com/apps/windows/NordVPN/6.46.5.0/NordVPNSetup_x64.exe
Only now with this new version, that link results in a 404 error. Do you have the working URL to the direct link to the download?
