OpenVPN Support Forum

I have removed a previous version of OpenVPN connect from a Windows 10 PC and I am trying to install v2.6. However there seems to some memory of the previous version laying around and it is preventing the new install.

I get the following errors:
"The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable" Click OK to try again or enter an alternative path to a folder containing the installation package openvpn-connect2.5.0.136_signed.msi.

When I cancel out of that it says "The older version of OpenVPN Connect cannot be removed. Contact your technical support group.

I removed the old version cleanly (or so I thought) using Programs and Features. There is probably something stuck in the registry somewhere, but I can't find it.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

I'm probably far too late but hopefully someone finds this info useful because I had the same problem and it was really annoying not being able to install updates.

After searching through the registry for "openvpn" and deleting all matching keys and deleting files matching "openvpn" from both /program files and /users to no avail I used a program called "Windows Installer CleanUp Utility" to delete an installer who's name started with "openvpn".

After using the utility the openvpn connect installer stopped asking for the missing msi from the old version and the new version of openvpn connect installed normally and is now working.

And all because .. Windblows is just that bad.
