How to connect automatically by scripts?

When I select a VPN server and try to connect it, but it always prompts me that failed to connect the VPN server, then I had to double-click the icon of VPN Gate Public VPN Relay Servers again, rearrange and select the next one, and try again and again until a certain one can be connected, sometimes even fail for dozens of times. Although it's just a mechanical way to click the mouse several times, can such an operation be replaced by a script?

There is no command line access to VPN Gate Client Plugin's hosts list.
The command line features of SE VPN Client Manager are rather limited.
That said, I've just tested a usable workaround for scripted VPN Gate auto-connect. You will not like it but let's discuss and improve it.
#1 on
https://www.vpngate.net/en/ pick a few of your preferred hosts.
For example currently the first top one:
public-vpn-185.opengw.net
#2 in SE VPN Client Manager click 'add vpn connection' and enter:
Code: Select all
name: SRVA
host: public-vpn-185.opengw.net
port: 443
hub: VPNGATE
user: vpn
password: vpn
#3 ...add as many connections as you need
#4 create this "auto-connect.bat" batch file with the above connection names:
Code: Select all
@echo off
path=%path%;C:\Program Files\SoftEther VPN Client
::start
vpncmd /CLIENT localhost /CMD AccountRetrySet SRVA /NUM:0 /INTERVAL:5
vpncmd /CLIENT localhost /CMD AccountConnect SRVA
ping -n 10 127.0.0.1 >nul
vpncmd /CLIENT localhost /CMD AccountRetrySet SRVB /NUM:0 /INTERVAL:5
vpncmd /CLIENT localhost /CMD AccountConnect SRVB
ping -n 10 127.0.0.1 >nul
vpncmd /CLIENT localhost /CMD AccountRetrySet SRVC /NUM:0 /INTERVAL:5
vpncmd /CLIENT localhost /CMD AccountConnect SRVC
ping -n 10 127.0.0.1 >nul
:: ...etc...
::goto start
#5 double-click on "auto-connect.bat"
It will still require to cancel a failed connection popup but it is only a single mouse click :-)

Thank you for your sincere reply to my question. I even think no one will pay attention to this. Although there is no script or plug-in to realize the operation I want, you do provide a good idea, and I will continue to try
