Hi dh44,

I am not sure why that would be. Are they using a closed source client? In any case you'll have to go to them for support of their software/service.

Outline is an open source project created by Jigsaw.

It is very difficult to contact them, the answers are with a long delay, for 3 days and sometimes more.

As far as I know, the problem of conflict between OpenVPN tap adapters and other VPN tap adapters is not uncommon.

Therefore, I decided to ask a question here, perhaps this has already been sorted out and there are some solutions.

Can I post links here?

A TAP adapter is a TAP adapter and can be used by anything which uses a TAP adapter.

Just use what you have and install more if needed from the "TAP Utilities" Menu in Windows.
