The SoftEther VPN Client will not all me to uninstall it from Control Panel Programs and Features.
I get the error:
"The setup program has been executed from outside an install source. Unable to continue the installation."
How can I get rid of it?
Thanks,
David

At first, please delete virtual NIC adapter.
You can uninstall the VPN client service by this command.
"vpnclient.exe /uninstall"
Finally, please delete folder which the VPN client is installed.

Re: Cannot uninstall from Control Panel Programs and Feature
The command thisjun is referring to "vpnclient.exe /uninstall" is a command that you execute using Windows command prompt.
Start > Run > "cmd.exe" (without quotes)
Then you navigate via command prompt to where you have installed SoftEther VPN client, by default it would be in Program Files > SoftEther VPN Client
"cd \Program Files\SoftEther VPN Client"
A successful navigation via command prompt to that directory would show a difference on the command prompt line
"X:\:" > "X:\Program Files\SoftEther VPN Client>"
With successful navigation to the right directory you then execute the command
"vpnclient.exe /uninstall"
