greatg Having a problem with auto starting on reboot. I've gone in Admin tools-->Services-->openvpn services-->right clicked and selected auto. When I reboot W10X64 the application does not run. When I try to manually start the service this window pops up "The OpenVPN Service service on Local Computer started and then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other services or programs."

greatg It's installed in C:\Program Files\OpenVPN\config\client.ovpn I can manually enable but not auto
Traffic Perhaps something went wrong at install time .. see: https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/openvpn-gui-reinstall-to-different-path-breaks-it
greatg Thanks for the help. All the associated files are in the correct folders. I even removed, cleaned and re-installed? Maybe a bug that will be fixed...
Traffic Do this: Stop the openvpn service Delete the old log file for the VPN from the openvpn/logs directory Start the openvpn service Now look in the logs directory for a new log file .. post the log if you have one (remove any private data).
