Welcome to August, let’s kick things off with a classic, this one’s really common, and it’s really super simple to fix. I’ve only seen it on 64bit installations of the Cisco VPN client.
- Open regedit
- Find HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\CVirtA
- There is a String Value called DisplayName Right click and modify
- remove @oemX.inf,%CVirtA_Desc%;. The Value data should only contain Cisco Systems VPN Adapter for 64-bit Windows.
- Reopen the VPN Client
Boom!
Hope this helps
UPDATE 20/7/16:
Also seen on Windows 10 32bit, only the string is @oem25.inf,%CVirtA_Desc%;
