Research direction

The report provides no source file or test; start by reproducing the OpenPN-2.6.13-I001-amd64.MSI run on Windows 11 and observe the Creating TUN/TAP adapters step. Done would require identifying why installation stops and confirming a successful install, but the issue does not define a code change or validation test.
