Hi, for me these methods did not work, however, I figured out that the Comodo Firewall driver is also causing such a behavior (worked fine for ages, only started with latest TAP version).

I fixed it by doing the following:
1) Export Comodo Firewall Configuration
2) Uninstall Comodo
3) Reboot
4) Install OpenVPN or other apps with TAP adapters
5) Reboot (not sure if necessary)
6) Reinstall Comodo Firewall and import config

Cheers
