Installation with automatic import of a configuration
Installation with automatic import of a configuration:
If there is a folder labelled Config in the same path as the installation file Securepoint_VPN_Client-<Version>.exe, the first configuration file contained there will be imported during the installation process.
Migration of old connections
Migration of old connections:
The migration of connections from the file path of the old Securepoint SSL-VPN Client is carried out via the GUI either at the first start or, if the corresponding function has been activated in the settings, at the next start.
In both cases, if a connection to the old client is found, the migration wizard opens.

Automated installation
Example of an automated installation process:
- Notification to users that the new client is being installed
- Copy the installation file Securepoint_VPN_Client-<Version>.exe to the target devices via group policy (GPO) or software distribution system
- If necessary, create a folder with the name Config in the same way, which contains the respective configuration
- Install new VPN client via:C:\Securepoint_VPN_Client-<Version>.exe" /silent
- Migrate old VPN configuration if necessary:C:\Program Files\Securepoint VPN Client\Securepoint VPN Client.exe" /migrate
- Finally, users may have to deactivate the autostart of the old SSL VPN client and activate it in the new VPN client.
An Instruction for end users can be found here: https://wiki.securepoint.de/index.php?title=VPN/VPN-Client-Umstellung&uselang=en
Change autostart
If you are switching from the previous SSL VPN client to the new Securepoint VPN client, you only need to make a few simple changes to the autostart settings to finalise the switch.
Deactivate autostart for old client
Activate autostart for new client
Ignoring runtime requirements
When installing the client, it is possible to ignore the required runtime prerequisites
- An option is displayed in the user interface (GUI) to not install the runtime requirements if they are missing on the system
If the runtime requirements already exist, this option is not displayed - The parameter /ignore-prereq is used for the CLI .\Securepoint_VPN_Client-<Version>.exe /ignore-prereq /s
- windowsdesktop-runtime-6.0.12-win-x64.exe May be installed automatically
- VC_redist.x64.exe May be installed automatically
This can happen if Microsoft creates a patch for these and the checksum changes as a result.
However, the following things must then be configured manually:
- The runtime requirements must be downloaded and installed manually before the client can be started.
- The service is not started automatically.
This means that it must be started manually and configured to start automatically at system startup.
This can be implemented as follows (using elevated rights):- Start service:
sc.exe start "Securepoint VPN Client Service" - Configure service for automatic start:
sc.exe config "Securepoint VPN Client Service" start=auto
This causes the service to start automatically the next time the system is started. It is recommended to test these configurations. You can check whether the Securepoint VPN Client Service is started via "Services".
