Using CheckPoint I'm trying to use a VPN access from work to my clients site, which worked fine in Windows 7 and 8. But in Windows 10 I'm getting the error 'ssl network extender service is down...'

Check Point SSL Network Extender will be displayed upon the completion of the ActiveX control download and automatic installation. WARNING NOTICE: This is a private computer system, protected and monitored by a security system. Download ssl network extender for free. Internet & Network tools downloads - Check Point SSL Network Extender by CheckPoint and many more programs are available for instant and free download.

I get the error message just at the beginning of the request, when CheckPoint is trying to connect.

Trying to run Internet Explorer emulated as an another browser has no effect.

I resolved this issue by running IE 11 as an Administrator.

Install Ssl Network Extender

I resolved this issue by manually downloading the Windows 7 version of SNX (SSL Network Extender). It can be downloaded here, or found by searching for 'SNX R71 For Windows 7'

The version I got is the following:

After download and install I was prompted about downloading a newer updated version, and asked abount installing some Java applets. Accepting everything made it possible for me to login via Internet Explorer 11 in Windows 10.

UPDATE

While it (somewhat) works to run IE 11 as administrator, I thought I wanted to tell what the real problem is:

It turns out that it often is the SSL VPN for the server that doesn't support Windows 10. I have heard that checkpoint offers an official patch for Windows 10, but it requires a firewall upgrade.

Full support should be on its way from Checkpoint, but I don't know when. Until then they offer a beta client that I havn't tested, but that I have heard should solve most of the problems.

Here is what I did:

1. I removed all programs which are related with network extender in control panel.
2. Then I run IE as administrator and then tried to do VPN
3. After this attempt, explorer automatically installed ssl network extender, started its service and then accomplished to do VPN without problem.

Usually running IE as administrator fixes the error, but sometimes only uninstalling the SSL extenders helps. Thanks.

All of these point runs:

• You have to run IE in administrator mode
• You can download client checkpoint Endpoint Security VPN
