Turns out that renaming adapter by setting registry
key doesn't really work - while new adapter name is shown
in control panel etc, when one tries to change adapter properties
(like set DNS) with netsh call - it fails:
Fri Mar 13 09:05:36 2020 us=569311 Setting IPv4 dns servers on 'OpenVPN Wintun'
(if_index = 14) using service
Fri Mar 13 09:05:37 2020 us=118028 TUN: adding IPv4 dns failed using service:
Funktio ei kelpaa. [status=1 if_name=OpenVPN Wintun]
This renames adapter with netsh command, like:
netsh interface set interface name="Local Area Connection 2"
newname="OpenVPN Wintun"
Above functionality is used by tapctl.exe and openvpnsica.dll (during
installation).
