iandarke It looks like W10 has changed around some of the registry keys so the current client does not function w/o some advanced registry hacking.
ABauer Hi, there is already a ticket open, addressing this issue. https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/ticket/592
ABauer As it turned out, this bug is related to the virtual adapter that Kaspersky Anti-Virus uses. Uninstalling seems to enable the installation of the OpenVPN Client. BUT this is no option for me, as I can't skip my Anti-Virus or switch over to another product. Does anybody else has problems with the installation and NOT using Kaspersky?
iandarke All, OpenVPN connect (access server client) failed to work on both my laptop and tablet that were upgraded from Windows 8.1 -> Windows 10. Eventually I was able to get working. Uninstall all openVPN software Download the latest standalone client Test with a downloaded .OVPN copied to the config folder Download openvpn connect and test If any of the above do not work, then I suggest uninstalling antivirus (not disabling - uninstalling) and then repeat the process and then install AV when you are done. Obviously, this may not be viable for everyone and should be done very carefully
ABauer @iandrake: What OS and Anti-Virus are you using? Does the problem still exist on your machine?
iandarke Both of my W10 machines with the issue now work. I had two machines with the issue. One of them had Symantec Antivirus (latest version - 12.1.6?) and the other just had the Microsoft Security Essentials. On both of them OpenVPN connect would not work (TAP issues) - uninstalling and reinstalling made no difference Installing the latest OpenVPN standalone client worked on both. Here is the part I am not sure about (sorry - I was multitasking). I *THINK* that on the machine w/ Symantec, that even after the OpenVPN standalone client started working that I couldn't get OpenVPN connect to work until I uninstalled Symantec and then reinstalled both the standalone client and the connect client. I am sure that on the second machine (that had MS Security Essentials) that the fix process was: uninstall openvpn connect install openvpn standalone client test openvpn standalone client install openvpn connect test openvpn connect
