SecureLine and Windows 10
« on: April 03, 2015, 02:22:22 PM »
In the current build (10049) SecureLine doesnt want to connect to any VPN.
Avast error message is 'Sorry, it is not possible to establish a connection'

Avast SecureLine TAP Adapter 3 is greyed out and disabled.

When I enable it, then try and reconnect to SecureLine, it fails the connection with the error message above, then greys out the TAP connection.

Will there be a fix for this via the program or shall I just wait and see with a new build of Windows 10?

Hi anarkii,

please try this:

- open regedit and navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class
- then press ctrl+f and serach for aswtap (should be located in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E972-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}\000X - where X stands for the instance of SecureLine adapter)
- crete new string value here (value name = ComponentId, value data = aswtap)
- enable SecureLine adapter and disable it again (when you are not connected to SecureLine, adapter should be disabled as default)
- try to connect to SecureLine

Hope it will help.

Just wanted to bump this thread as you will need to do the registry editing still with todays release of Windows 10 - Build 10074 Insider Preview until a program fix is offered.

Hi,
I have W10 Build 10074 and the issue described above.
I checked the Registry and the ComponentId, value data = aswTap is already present.
When I try to start a connection the adapter is Enabled, Identifying... then back to Disabled, then the error message Sorry, it was not possible to establish a connection.
Tried a Repair of Avast but still not connecting.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Martin

Secure line seems to detect my current connection as insecure and keeps wanting to connect whenever I start up.
That same connection is recognized as a secure connection when I boot into the Windows 8.1 partition ???

Unfortunitly you need to do this fix (use lowercase aswtap) for todays build of 10122. Still no update from Avast that does it for you just yet.

And again with todays build of 10158.

For the mods/admin etc - will there be a program fix or update to Avast that will fix this in the RTM of Windows 10 and beyond? Being a simple Registry fix seems like it should be a very easy update to push out.
