About OpenVPN Connect

OpenVPN Connect is the official OpenVPN client app developed by OpenVPN Inc., the creators of the OpenVPN® protocol. Designed for use with OpenVPN’s zero-trust business VPN solutions, this app enables secure remote access to internal networks, cloud resources, and private applications.

Impossible to import profiles now

App doesn’t register the .ovpn file handler, so you can no longer share to, or open with, a .ovpn profile. This is really dumb you can’t just open a profile from within the app!

ManiacalMatt

Useless

Cannot get the OVPN file read into the app. Useless program.
