In the settings of OpenVPN, does it show the location of the config files correctly? I think it's by default under users files (.../users/xxx/OpenVPN/Config, it can also be under Program Files as well (C:/Program Files/OpenVPN/Config. Please make sure the settings is pointing to the correct location where you have the config and certificate files.

I didn't realize config files were stored in user files. The dir I showed was from program files\OpenVPN\config.
I later got error messages saying there were multiple config files. Not knowing about the user files, I just deleted OpenVPN out of frustration, with plans to work on it another day.
Now I see there is a copy of client.ovpn in users\...\OpenVPN\config\client and another in program files\...\config. I'll reinstall OpenVPN, drop the cert files in the user folder delete the corresponding entries in program files.
