    Whether or not the question belongs here, the answer is found here:

    First, you need to fix the following registry key to resolve error 442 Unable to enable virtual adapter:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\CVirtA\DisplayName

    It will be set to something like “@oem8.inf,%CVirtA_Desc%;Cisco Systems VPN Adapter for 64-bit Windows” – drop everything before “Cisco Systems” from that value.

    Next, when using certs, you cannot use your certificate from the local user store. Rather, import the certificate to the local computer store and delete it from your user store. This should resolve error 403 Unable to contact the security gateway.
