This sounds like you have installed the RC versions and now have some corrupted registry problems.
I would try completely uninstalling all OpenVPN and TAP/wintun drivers and reboot.

I have installed all OpenVPN software from my computer including the TAP and Wintun drivers then I restarted it.
Upon installing OpenVPN 2.4.9 i received this error.
TAP-Windows 9.24.2-I601 Setup
An error occurred installing the TAP device driver.
What is going on? Please help.

You can try the Powershell script found here:
https://github.com/mattock/tap-windows-scripts
It is supposed to remove all trace of TAP Windows drivers.

I can't remember what happened, but I checked Device Manager and the TAP driver is installed.
I consider this thread closed as I now have a working TAP driver.
