Description

When I upgraded the Client from version 1.2.4 -> 1.4.0 and from 1.4.0 to 1.5.0-alpha8 I recieved a whitescreen and the client didn´t do anything.
Closing the app via Tray-Icon and Task Manager didn´t help. The only solution was a reboot.
The VPN connection was disconnected and the upgrade didn´t show any errors.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the upgrade paths from 1.2.4 to 1.4.0 and from 1.4.0 to 1.5.0-alpha8 on Windows 11, observing the client and VPN state when the whitescreen occurs. Done means the Client remains usable after upgrade, or reports a clear error instead of requiring a reboot.
