Hello!

The system command netsh, invoked by OpenVPN (a protocol and the program creating the point to point VPN tunnel), fails:

Try to switch to WireGuard (another program and protocol to create point to point VPN tunnels) to verify whether the problem is related to the virtual network interface creation process (which is different when WireGuard is used):

• select from Eddie's man window "Preferences" > "Protocols"
• uncheck "Automatic"
• select a line with WireGuard
• click "Save" and test again a connection

and report back whether the connection is successful or not. In both cases, please consider to send us a system report generated by Eddie after the problem has occurred. Please see here to do so:
Kind regards
