Hi,
I have a question.
I have install OpenVPN with GUI on my Win7 machine.
I have put my config and keys/certs in c:\Program Files\OpenVPN\config\ directory.
And the problem occurs, when I have to change configuration.
When I change config file, neither GUI, nor console openvpn remember old version of config file (but when I have opened config using GUI option "Edit config" there was new version of config).
And even when I delete config file, GUI and console application try to establish connection using old version of this file.
So the question is: does openvpn copy somewhere files from config directory?
Thanks for answers in advance.

The short answer is: no.
When you select the gui option to edit your configuration, it opens the file (a text file) in Notepad. When you save it, it overwrites the original.

So I'a dump, or there are problem with windows.
When I deleted configuration file from c:\program files\openvpn\config still coing to this folder and executing:
openvpn.exe --config <the name of deleted configuration file>
try to make a connection using configuration from deleted previously file.
How this can be possible?

make sure you are not using virtual stores - this can often cause problems on vista/7.
Run a cmd window as Administrator and then 'cd' to the directory where openvpn is installed - what do you see?
