Hello,

I don’t know how to fix this CISCO VPN Client error, everything worked just fine before the update of my Windows 8 to Windows 8.1. I expected that these updates will improve the performances of my laptop. Can anyone help me please to fix this error ? Please help me to configure the CISCO client.

Thank you experts !

One possible reason why you receive this error on your VPN client is because of the operating system update. Usually, when upgrading Microsoft Windows 7 to Microsoft Windows 8, all applications installed on the computer have to be reinstalled or they will not work. This is mandatory as a result of the operating system upgrade.

Though Microsoft Windows 8.1 is not a new version of the Microsoft Windows operating system but only a Service Pack update for Microsoft Windows 8, the update may also affect some applications installed on the computer. If one or more applications stopped working after the update, one possible solution is to reinstall the affected application. Download the free version of Revo Uninstaller and install it.

Once installed, start Revo Uninstaller then select your VPN client among the applications and click “Uninstall”. Follow the normal uninstall process. When uninstall is complete, click “Scan” to scan your computer for any leftover files and delete everything it finds. This removes everything the program created on your computer. When it is finished, close Revo Uninstaller then install your VPN client back. See if this works.
