I've tried installing as user and as administrator -- no difference. I've tried letting openvpn-gui start with windows, and manually (both as user and administrator) -- no difference. A friend of mine, who has basically the same settings in his .ovpn as i do, CAN get it to work if he starts it via openvpn-gui. Here is the top of our .ovpn (cutting off the certs):

Also, eventually i need to get OpenVPN (with wintun) working without a user logged in as our systems are used for M2M monitoring. I built some scripts to allow this on our older systems. But from reading the explanations about OpenVPN Interactive Service and OpenVPN-gui, i am wondering if it will allow this?
Any assistance with this Proof of Concept for v2.5 would be appreciated.
