TAP installer failed on Windows 10
Posted: Sun Nov 27, 2016 2:40 pm
Hi, I hope that I am at the right place.
Installing Openvpn 2.3.13 failed on win10 with this error message, after two successful installations on other win10 systems.
"An error occurred installing the TAP device driver."
Installing TAP separately fails with the same error message. In addition, the log shows this sequence at the end:
"Updating drivers for tap0901 from C:\Program Files\TAP-Windows\driver\OemVista.inf.
UpdateDriverForPlugAndPlayDevices failed, GetLastError = -536870330
tapinstall.exe failed.
tapinstall.exe returned: 2
tapinstall cumulative status: 2
Created uninstaller: C:\Program Files\TAP-Windows\Ininstall.exe
Completed"
What is going wrong here? What does the error code mean?
I tried several things:
- Openvpn connection to my external server is not possible
- Avira Services deactivated
- Windows firewall deactivated
- reboot
The error code cannot be found with Google.
