OpenVPN credentials password
Greetings!
Found an issue, that if I set credential autofill in OpenVPN plugin they can't login because itpaste wrong password. No matter if I use builtin or external credenals.
Also if I change password or leave it empty it still paste some password of same length.
Version is 2020.1.20.0 x64. Windows 10 Pro.

Hello,
can you please try to enable Use Authentication file

It works! Thank you!
Could you explain how it works?
Hello,
When you check the "use authentication file" option, instead of writing the credentials in the windows, RDM creates a temporary file on disk with the credentials in it. OpenVPN can then use this file to authenticate. After closing the VPN, the authentication file is deleted. This is the most reliable way to send credentials to OpenVPN.

Thanks for the explanation, I was having issues with the auto-type starting to type before the login window was fully loaded - checking "use authentication file" worked perfectly.
