Activation of VPN Adapter Failed

wi00928966 – Users who upgrade from a v10.05 or earlier release to v10.06 on Windows XP may receive the following error dialogue when attempting to establish an IPSec VPN tunnel – “Activation of VPN Adapter Failed”. This issue occurs when the AVC filter driver is not upgraded correctly during software installation.
As a precautionary measure, rebooting the machine before an upgrade installation is highly recommended. If the problem does occur, the workaround would be to uninstall and then reinstall the client. Please note, uninstall will remove all profiles and configurations. If users want to carry them over to the following reinstallation, they can use the Import/Export feature to export them before uninstall and import them back after reinstallation. For more details about the Import/Export feature please see Section 7 of this document.)

You should refer to the release notes for all the details, including the interoperability issues.
