hi Stefan,
your profile looks good, apologies for missing it earlier. TAP mode is not supported on OpenVPN 3, i missed the TAP message from your screenshot. Try using the 2.x client from the download page https://openvpn.net/client/client-connect-vpn-for-windows/
thanks

Thanks a lot for helping me, but with this version I'm back where I started, my first post...
hmm... maybe you can find something in the log file, attached it as a pdf... (I removed domain name)

did you change the insecure mode, if the option available?
second, you could try adding this in a new line "tlsversion-min 1.0" in your profile based on this error message
"If your OpenVPN client is between v2.3.6 and v2.3.2 try adding tlsversion-min 1.0 to the client configuration to use TLS 1.0+ instead of TLS 1.0 only "

yes added "tls-version-min 1.0" to my profile, but still same error...
maybe I need an older version of OpenVPN GUI??... installed OpenVPN-2.6.6-I001-amd64

Glad you found the right client version, it should be simpler but an arduous effort 😂🤣
