Hi David

No problem, we’ll be happy to help.

For starters, you can always reference our guide here for Windows 10: https://cleanbrowsing.org/guides/windows

Configuring CleanBrowsing on your local machine is straight forward. The fastest way is to use something called command prompt.

You will want to run it as the administrator (you can do this by right-clicking the option in your start menu). Once you open the command prompt, you’ll want to run two separate commands in the window that pops up.

Commands to run:

netsh interface ipv4 set dns "Wi-Fi" static 185.228.168.168 primary
netsh interface ipv4 add dns "Wi-Fi" 185.228.169.168 index=2

Now you can go to this site: dnsleaktest.com and run the standard test. These instructions help you verify if the local DNS was configured correctly: https://cleanbrowsing.org/guides/how-to-verify-cleanbrowsing-dns-configured

If you have any other questions, please let me know.
