Microsoft's most recent security update for Windows 10 and Windows 11 may cause VPNs to fail to connect, Microsoft warns. There is no fix.

        So like, the 0 that use that implementation. Like really, IPsec? No openvpn support? No wireguard support? What is this, 2004?

              It’s a crap platform, but it’s the company’s fault.

              Just like the windows laptop.

          Our sister company had their VPN broken by this and we had to switch to another system. Even though it wasn’t a particularly secure VPN (IPSec), the builtin Windows VPN was extremely reliable and convenience compared to shit like Pulse.

        In fairness, Surfshark appears still to work.
