You mean OpenVPN started using the GUI? If so, no, I'm not saying that. The
GUI just works even with beta1 or with beta3. On Windows user's processes
run with limited privileges even if the user is an "admin". At least that
is the default because of UAC.

Installation can be done when logged in as admin or as a limited user
(provided you know admin credentials) as the installer prompts for
elevation as required.

That qualifier I added was because: the GUI running with privileges (admin)
has been discouraged in 2.4 ever since we introduced the interactive
service. And that continues with 2.5. It will work for some things and not
for some other things. Same with running the GUI with interactive service
disabled. As such uses are not supported, don't complain about it :)
