Before you go through the trouble of uninstalling/reinstalling, make sure you are launching the agent manager by right clicking and ‘Run as Administrator.’ If you aren’t doing this then UAC may very well be blocking your access to client.keys and the conf file. The Windows Firewall does indeed come enabled by default, but that isn’t the issue here (it also doesn’t block any outbound connections by default, unless domain policy is at play).

I currently don't have any access to the workstation (I'm at home) but I will give it a shot. Is the windows firewall by default enabled? Sorry, I don't have any windows know-how....I'm only ever using *NIX based systems... what strikes me though....to me it seems like a *permission* problem (see screenshots --> unable to set permissions on auth key files) rather than a firewall that's dropping the connection?! I will uninstall and reinstall with the administrator user (although I thought I had used it....but obviously not) Am Mittwoch, 23.
