    AnyConnect stopped connecting intermittently similar issue as KB4033637 update


    This issue we are having looks the same as KB4033637 affecting Windows 10 1607, we are running 1909.


    https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/update-for-windows-10-version-1607-for-x64-based/8989bccb-1932-414c-a06e-eb5c9dc41f2f


    Several domain machines are affected, we don't believe anything updated. This has been going on for a few weeks. The errors we see are popups when trying to connect intermittently.


    We have support from Cisco and they could not find anything wrong with the AnyConnect install and when the errors did popup, the Firewall was reporting a successful connection, but Windows did not think it was.


    Thanks for any insight.

    :)

    Update for Windows 10 Version 1607 for x64-based Systems (KB4033637) - causes Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client to stop working

    Hi,

    After the KB4033637 Windows 10 update was installed on my HP spectre, I was no longer able to connect to a VPN using Cisco AnyConnect. I keep getting the error "The VPN client driver encountered an error. Please restart your computer or device, then try
    again." followed by "AnyConnect was not able to establish a connection to the specified secure gateway. Please try connecting again.".

    I rolled back my system to before the Windows update, and was able to connect using AnyConnect.

    Then, once again my computer reinstalled the update and I was unable to use VPN.

    Is there any way to fix this problem without uninstalling the Windows update?

    Thanks,

    nk
