1. Download OpenVPN

The first thing you need to do to connect to OVPN is to download the correct OpenVPN GUI for your computer.

We recommend to try the 64-bit version first if you are unsure which version you're using.

If you're running Windows on a 64-bit system, download this installer.

If you're running Windows on a 32-bit system, download this installer instead.

If you're running Windows on a ARM64 system, download this installer.

2. Install OVPN

To begin the installation, double-click the file you downloaded in the previous step. Go through the installation process.
