Is it possible to connect a Chromebook to Windscribe using this? If so please tell me how
You can install Android apps on the Chromebook. Just do that?
Go to the openvpn option, you would need windscribe pro to do this.
With a pro account you can manually set up vpn
Probably. But since this is a Chromebook given by my school they have every obvious solution blocked such as android apps so I’m hoping this could allow me to use Windscribe anyway.
Some Chromebooks. Certainly not all.
There is a way to do this, however it’s not very straight forward. What about the Chrome extension? Can you install that?
Unfortunately not 
I did search around online though and found https://www.errietta.me/blog/openvpn-chromebook/
I skipped the setting up the server part and went to the Chromebook client part, and imported ca.crt but I can’t find a way to get client.p12 from the OpenVPN Config Generator nor do I know the Server Hostname. Could this be on the right track?
The hostname is in the config file. Have a look at this instead: https://github.com/R3vXX/oncgenerator
Thanks for following through with this!
I downloaded and configured the ONC File Generator, took the output file, put it on my Chromebook, entered the password but still no luck. It might be because I configured something incorrectly and don’t know a lot about this kind of stuff.
I’ll put the options I had in the file generator so if there is a red flag or something let me know. ^(and if I doxed myself delete this comment)
If it helps the config settings were

Again, Thanks for following through and taking time out of your day for my smol brain!
- Cipher should be AES-256-CBC
- Auth should be SHA512
Give that a shot?
Ok so I tried that and it worked I was able to connect but it seems I can’t connect to the internet. Whenever I go to a website it says
"(site)'s server IP address could not be found.
with code DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_BAD_CONFIG
Hmm, that sounds like bad DNS configuration. Do you have terminal access, if so, if you run nslookup windscribe.com what do you see while connected?
How do I access the terminal on a Chomebook?
Never mind crosh right? It’s blocked.
Nothing pops up when I search it so it must have been disabled too
