Windows MSI Product ID issue

Post by rhysevans » Wed Jun 20, 2018 9:46 pm

Hi guys,
Any progress on moving to an MSI?

Having the windows product ID when installed and not available through WMI Win32_Product is very painful!
It means our software deployment tools don't pick it up as being installed and doesn't accept 'OpenVPN' as a product code as it's not in form of a guid.

If you feel you can contribute your time/expertise then please contact the developers.
