In some cases, we noticed that OpenVPN needs administrator privileges in order for it to be able to add routes to the system routing table.
To set OpenVPN to run as administrator in Windows, please follow the steps below:
- Right-click on the Start MPN Service icon and select Properties.
- Select the Compatibility tab.
- Under Settings select Run this program as an administrator and click Apply.
Note: In some cases, you will need to:
i. Click on Change settings for all users
ii. Tick the Run this program as an administrator checkbox
iii. Click OK to get back to the Compatibility tab.
- Click OK to save the changes, relaunch, and try connecting to our service.
