Boot into Safe Mode according to Start up your Mac in safe mode - Apple Support and test to see if the problem persists. Reboot normally and test again.

NOTE: Safe Mode boot can take up to 3 - 5 minutes as it's doing the following;

• Verifies your startup disk and attempts to repair directory issues, if needed

• Loads only required kernel extensions (prevents 3rd party kernel/extensions from loading)

• Prevents Startup Items and Login Items from opening automatically

• Disables user-installed fonts

• Deletes font caches, kernel cache, and other system cache files

The VPN app you installed has borked macOS. That's not uncommon. Using a VPN to access the Internet is counterproductive. It does nothing to protect you... exactly the opposite in fact.

If you can't remove it completely using the instructions in the post above, I suggest you back up your data, wipe your Mac, and start from scratch.
