So the second part of this is a mistake on my part. Config_dir registry
entry in HKLM/Software/OpenVPN wasn't set so it was searching the entire
disk for config files.
However the first part of the question regarding the deprecation of
OpenVPN GUI registry entries still applies.
Sorry folks.

Folks,
The document found
here...https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/OpenVPN-GUI-New
seems to imply that most of the traditional Registry Entries that
could be used to configure the behavior of the the OpenVPN-GUI tool
are ignored/deprecated?
Maybe I'm reading it wrong and they are just saying the command line
overrides are gone? and just the core OpenVPN reg items themselves are
used?
In either event is there definitive list of control entries for the
2.4 base.
Also the above document (and my experience) shows that GUI searches
the C:/Program Files/OpenVPN and /Users/xxxx/OpenVPN directory
structure? However I'm seeing that basically any .ovpn file in
/Users/xxx and under are getting found. Seems almost like a bug?
Issue I have is user is provided a config file with embedded certs.
They download it. GUI will in fact pick it up and can be used with
"Importing" it, but then there are two such files found in /Users/xxx
and below. I get that the "Import" function makes a nice clean
directory structure under the Users OpenVPN folder but then they end
up with two entries in the GUI menu...seems to lead to user confusion,
ie GUI complains that there are two files with same name etc. I've
confirmed this by putting a test-home.ovpn , test-downloads.ovpn file
in the Users Downloads and Home Folder and I end up with test,
test-home, test-downloads menu items in the GUI.
Am I missing something big here?
Thank you
Colin
