to install the PIA software on the public release of Windows 10 Pro, 64 bit.I'm currently running build 10240 and it is fully updated.To date, working with PIA support Brendon T https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/forum/discussion/18340/windows-10-pro-final-release-tap-driver-installation-failure and Will BFirst I installed the PIA software per the instructions on the website. The original installation seemed to work fine, but I discovered after trying to connect that the TAP driver wasn't installed correctly. https://ssl.alwaysvpn.com/forum/comments.php?DiscussionID=323 I immediately contacted support and got a case going. While discussing my setup with the tech, he suggested some changes to my anti-virus (Kaspersky) which I did. I use a Zywall USG50 hardware firewall, so an error I have both the Kaspersky and Windows firewalls disabled, but I did put in the exceptions into the application scanning, etc, that were suggested.Trying to reinstall the TAP driver from the start menu as an administrator was the first step. It failed (it takes approximately 4 minutes every time, btw). It just times out, and then you get a popup saying it failed. Each time you install, either PIA installer an error occurred in the command window, or with the OpenVPN installer, it gives you a notice that you may need confirmation ...but there is no popup or anything for approval at any point, so this may also be one of the issues.I then tried going to the device manager, which shows the driver in Other Devices, and tried updating from there. It also times out.PIA support requested a copy of the setupapi.dev.log, which I sent them, and we both continued to research the problem. Will B discovered that it seems that Windows 10 is handling driver signing differently than windows had in the past, so we tried rebooting with Driver Signature Enforcement disabled, and tried again. It continued to fail.Next, we tried downloading the 64 bit version of OpenVPN for post Vista versions of Windows, and installing just the TAP driver, again with DSE disabled. It failed again.In checking through problems with earlier builds of Windows 10, prior to the public release, it turns out there should be a registry entry for the Tap Adapter at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4d36e972-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318}\[00XX] (XX being the adapter number, which varies by your particular setup. In my case, it's 14). The fix for previous versions had been to do the following: add string value/data ComponentId/tap0901(REG_SZ) with regeditvalu

Windows VPN client: Error installing TAP device driver Bottom of Page 1 to 7 of 7 CommentAuthoralewis CommentTimeFeb 16th 2011 I'm trying to install the alwaysvpn program on a laptop with Win Vista. When ever I get to TAP INSTALL(tap0901), I get a message the says " An error occurred installing the TAP device driver." Kindly provide advice on hope to solve this problem. Thanks. CommentAuthoradmin CommentTimeFeb 16th 2011 Does your windows account have administrator privileges?Try right clicking on the installer file and selecting Run as administrator. CommentAuthoralewis CommentTimeFeb 16th 2011 Already tried selecting Run as administrator but that does not work. CommentAuthoradmin CommentTimeFeb 16th 2011 Go to the Start menu, All programs, Openvpn, Utilities, then click on Add new TAP network adapter.Please copy any error messages that this brings up. If openvpn was not even installed then I can issue a refund for your purchase unless you think you can use it on another computer.

CommentAuthoradmin CommentTimeSep 6th 2012 If you followed all of the suggestions in this thread and it still won't install then I don't have any other solution for you. Make sure that your antivirus software is not somehow blocking the installation.To request a refund send me an email with the contact form https://ssl.alwaysvpn.com/contact.php and include your alwaysvpn account username.
