FWIW I’m running 64-bit 8.1 with the 64-bit 2.2.2 Shrew client, and while testing the “modern” remote desktop app, I could not access remote hosts over the VPN tunnel. That was the first time I’ve ever tested this though, as I have no need to run any modern apps across it.

I run 64-bit Windows 8. As to what version of the Shrew Soft VPN client I'm running (64-bit or 32-bit), I don't know. When I get home from work tonight, I'll check. But since it is likely the same version I installed on other systems (systems that were 32-bit), I am probably running the 32-bit client. ________________________________ From: Bernd Pelzer <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> To: Donald Woeltje <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>>; "[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>" <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Cc: "[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>" <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Sent: Tuesday, March 25, 2014 1:10 PM Subject: AW: [vpn-help] W 8.1: VPN does not work with W8 Apps I do like the modern UI of W8.1-same user interface on desktop, tablet and smartphone. On laptops typically a 64-bit W8.1 is installed. Shrew VPN client is available as 32- and 64-bit version. Even 64-bit VPN is working with W8.1 modern UI it must not be necessarily the case with 32-bit. What version have you installed?

I will admit though that I hate the Windows 8 "Metro" user interface and the Windows 8.1 update of Metro isn't any better as far as I'm concerned. So what I did was to (for all practical purposes) replace the UI with another one. If you are having issues with the Metro interface, try www.classicshell.net<http://www.classicshell.net>. You can turn your user interface into an interface that is the same as that which came on Windows XP. ________________________________ From: Bernd Pelzer <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> To: "[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>" <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Cc: "[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>" <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Sent: Sunday, March 23, 2014 5:01 PM Subject: Re: [vpn-help] W 8.1: VPN does not work with W8 Apps Hi Alexis, I had a look to the links posted. These threads are more than one year old and related to W 8.0. The descritpion of mal function is similar to my problems. The link to KB article of Microsoft is just available in awful German for me.
