Cisco IPsec VPN on Windows 8 tweak
(Client not Windows 8 certified)
This tweak is found to work only on some Windows 8 devices, else use Shrewsoft VPN client
ProblemProblemProblemProblem
I've been running Windows 8 for a while now. But yesterday was the first time I needed to use my Cisco VPN Client software. So I was not happy
when this happened.
Note: Using VPN Client version 5.0.07.0440
Secure VPN Connection terminated locally by the Client.
Reason 442: Failed to enable Virtual Adapter.

As it turns out this is a known problem with Windows 8, and there is a work-around.
1. Press Windows Key+R to open the run prompt > regedit {enter}
2. Navigate to;
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>SYSTEM>CurrentControlSet>Services>CVirtA
Locate the DisplayName > Edit its value > Delete all the text to the LEFT of "Cisco Systems VPN Adapter for 64bit Windows."
2. So it looks like this.
3. Then it should work as before.
