OpenVPN 2.4.0 .NET Framework 4.0
Posted: Mon Jan 09, 2017 1:15 pm
The installer on Windows for version 2.4.0 prompts to download .NET Framework 4.0 when .NET Framework 4.0 is not installed.
However, I ignored and skipped the prompt to download .NET Framework 4.0 and proceeded with the installation without .NET Framework 4.0 and OpenVPN seems to be working just fine.
Here is part of the install log:
So is it O.K. to use OpenVPN 2.4.0 without .NET Framework 4.0? Or am I better off to install .NET Framework 4.0 for any specific reason?
Thank you!
