Just for the record, the best way to install configurations in Tunnelblick is to drag the configuration(s) and drop them on the Tunnelblick icon in the menu bar. The user can install "incomplete" .ovpn files, too, as long as the cert/key/etc. files the .ovpn files reference are readable by the user. Drag/drop forces macOS to use the currently-running copy ofTunnelblick to install the configuration. macOS's Launch Services, which handles double-clicks, can get confused when more than one copy of Tunnelblick exists on a system, or when other programs claim to be able to open configuration files, or when its database gets messed up. All three happen with enough frequency that we recommend drag/drop to install. Cheers, Jon Bullard PS: Because of the way macOS works, we can't disable double-clicks but still allow drag/drop, so for most users a double-click will work. But we don't advertise that. _______________________________________________ Openvpn-users mailing list Openvpn-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/openvpn-users
