FortiClient VPN on MacOs Sequoia (15) not working

Installed Forticlient VPN on Macos 15 Sequoia.

After trying to connect I'm getting the message "Initialize VPN system extension was failed" when trying to connect to our VPN. Also Forti Tray is nowhere to be found on Network extensions to turn it on.

Do you have any solutions? We tried uninstalling/restart/reinstall but the problem remains the same.
