I cannot get Pritunl to work.

I have tried multiple other solutions with no avail.

When using the newest version of Pritunl, after 2 minutes of it being open I get this error:

Also during runtime I get these errors:

Not being able to connect to any profile.

Using version [**Pritunl Client v1.2.3128.59**](https://github.com/pritunl/pritunl-client-electron/releases/tag/1.2.3128.59), I do not get any services errors and also notice that there is a services “Pritunl Service Helper” running.

However whenever I try to connect to a profile, I get “pritunl failed to start profile (internal server error)”  
With the profile getting stuck on connecting.

Check the log file `C:\ProgramData\Pritunl\pritunl-client.log` for errors.
