Openvpn Tap Driver Error Windows 10

Post by Geoff1994 »

I recently upgraded my operating system to Windows 10 and encountered an issue with the Openvpn Tap driver. It seems to be malfunctioning and causing connectivity problems. I've tried troubleshooting by reinstalling the driver, but without success. I've searched extensively on various websites, including the official Openvpn forum and the manufacturer's support page, but haven't been able to find a working driver link for the Windows 10 version. Could someone please provide me with a reliable download link for the Openvpn Tap driver compatible with Windows 10? Your assistance would be greatly appreciated.
