Hello, I came across a situation - when I connect LogMeIn Hamachi, which is installed on Windows 7, to the network, the computers on the network are not accessible, and a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark is drawn against them. I want to show how you can fix this error.
If you go into the node connection details, an error will be written next to the VPN status parameter.
If you go to the settings, in the VPN domain the status information says an error - Failed to connect to the network adapter. The peer is not reachable via VPN.
In my case, the problem was with the installation of the Hamachi network driver. If you go to the device manager (computer properties - device manager), you can see an exclamation mark in a yellow triangle for the Hamachi Network Interface driver. If you go to the properties of this driver it will be written that the driver does not have a digital signature.
Because of this, the system does not have a Hamachi network interface, and Hamachi cannot connect to computers on the network.
To fix this, you can take a difficult and simple route.
The difficult one is to put the system into test mode and disable mandatory verification of driver digital signatures in group policies. But I didn’t do that, and I don’t advise you to.
Simple - download Hamachi version 2.2.0.328 - Hamachi 2.2.0.328
After Hamachi 2.2.0.328 is downloaded, you need to remove the version that you have installed. And just install the version that was downloaded. In this version, everything is fine with the digital signature of the driver, and after installing it, everything worked for me.
After starting the program, you can update it from the program itself (for help - check for updates), or you can download the latest version from the developers website. When you run the installer, the program will be updated. And there should be no problems with the driver and connecting to computers.
By the way, I installed the latest version of the program on Windows 10, it worked fine for me, but if suddenly you have the same problem that I wrote about above, then you can try installing version 2.2.0.328.
With it, I had a situation where the driver in the device manager works fine, there are no exclamation marks, but there is no network interface in the network and sharing center. A simple reinstallation of LogMeIn Hamachi helped, meaning this version needs to be installed 2 times. After which everything works fine.
Logmein Hamachi, like any other program, can be removed through the standard Windows Add/Remove Programs tool or manually. You can also use third-party utilities to uninstall software from your PC. Close Hamachi and follow the instructions.
Method 1
If you want to remove Hamachi completely from your computer and are trying to do so for the first time, use the free CCleaner program. Download it from the official website, install and run. In the " Service» - « Uninstalling programs» find Hamachi.
Click on the button Uninstallation"(on it, and not on “Delete”, this is important, do not confuse it!), the uninstaller window will launch with a proposal to remove Logmein Hamachi. Check the box to delete user settings, as shown in the screenshot, and click the " Delete».
Wait for the process to complete; a reboot is usually not required after this.
Method 2
If you cannot remove Hamachi, it is not removed from network connections, it leaves behind a network adapter, services and a bunch of other “tails”, you will have to remove it manually.
First, uninstall the program, as far as possible, using standard means, then delete all folders with the name “Hamachi” (and also preferably with the name “Logmein”, if you are sure that there are no more programs of this developer installed on the computer) according to the following addresses:
C:\Program Files (x86)\
C:\Users\Your_User(Admin)\AppData\Local
C:\ProgramData\
*directories are shown using Windows 10 64 bit as an example.
Then you need to remove the Hamachi network (or rather, the network adapter) from the device manager.
* when working with the registry, be very careful and do not delete anything unnecessary!
Attention! Before deleting all Hamachi entries from the registry, you need to rename one folder in it, which belongs to the program installer and may subsequently interfere with the installation of a new version of Hamachi. Do the following:
Open the following branch in the registry editor (regedit):
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Installer\Products\
There you will see several folders with long names consisting of numbers and letters. Select the first folder and move down to the next using the arrows on your keyboard, while looking at the ProductName.
You need to find a folder where the ProductName says "Logmein Hamachi". Rename this folder by adding 2 letters X (for example) to the end of its name.
Now you can start deleting the remaining entries. To do this, use the search by program name ( CTRL +F).
Lastly, remove the Logmein Hamachi Tunneling Engine service. To do this, start the service manager (“ Win+R» - « services.msc"), find it and double-click on it with the left mouse button.
A window with the properties of the service will open, copy its system name from there and click on the “ Stop».
Then run the command line (" Win+R» - « cmd»)
and enter the command sc delete Hamachi2Svc
* Hamachi2Svc is the service name you copied, you can paste it into the command prompt window to avoid typing it manually.
After removing the service, restart your computer.
Hamachi is a popular program used to connect several different computers from any location into one single local network. If the program is configured incorrectly, the user cannot avoid problems in its operation. In particular, the following will discuss the situation when Hamachi reports a problem in the tunnel.
What is causing the problem?
As a rule, problems in the Hamahi tunnel are associated with two reasons: either the connection is inactive in Windows OS, or the program is not configured correctly. Below we will look at ways that will allow you to work with the program.
Method 1: Activate Network Connection
First of all, you should suspect that the Hamachi network connection on your computer is simply disabled. And turning it on won't be much of a problem.
Method 2: Reinstall the program
You can try to solve problems with any program by simply reinstalling it.
Method 3: Configure Hamachi Network Settings
Method 4: Editing Hamachi Settings
- Encryption – any;
- Compression – any;
- Traffic filtering – allow everything;
- Online presence – enable;
- Use a proxy server - no.
Method 5: Add Hamachi to the Antivirus Exceptions List
In more rare cases, an antivirus installed on a computer may mistake Hamachi and its activities for a virus threat.
To check this, you will need to disable the antivirus and then resume the program. If the problem goes away, you will need to go to the antivirus settings and add the Hamachi program to the exclusion list.
Sometimes during the process of uninstalling Logmeln Hamachi in order to upgrade to a new version or clean up the OS, errors occur. “The older version... cannot be removed” (it is impossible to remove the old version), “...trying to use is on a network resource ...Click OK to try again” (the network resource is not available, try again), “The resource with installation files is not available” - All these messages indicate that the application is not being removed.
In such cases, the system deletion function alone is not enough. It is necessary to additionally use third-party utilities, a registry editor, or a special patch from Microsoft.

Attention! If an error occurs when activating the built-in uninstaller or a message appears indicating the reason why Hamachi is not uninstalled, close the additional window that appears (“OK”, “Cancel”) and continue the cleaning procedure in Soft Organizer.
4. Upon completion of standard deletion, in the “In progress...” window, click the “Find” button.
5. After scanning the system, the program will report the remaining Hamachi elements found and offer to get rid of them. To continue cleaning, click “Delete”.
