OpenVPN Support Forum

Hello

Is it possible to not make the OpenVPN Connect Window appear at MacOS startup?

I like to have OpenVPN handy in the Menubar, but not as a Window at startup.

Thanks

In the Connect App settings, you should see a section called "Launch Options" just select "None". The window will no-longer appear on startup, although this way you will need to manually launch the app whenever you need to use it.

Thank you for your reply.

I like to have it handy in the menu without having to start the application.
But okay I can live with that

Since the original question was never answered - did anyone figure out a way to do what the OP was trying to do? Start the App, but only have it appear in the menu bar vs. opening the app window?

FYI - I created an Automator Application and used the command line parameter --minimize to start OpenVPN which does exactly that when you put it in Login Items.
