FortiClient VPN - program does not remember the login and password.

FortiClient VPN 7.2.4.0972 - program does not remember the login and password.

I did a trick with the registry:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Fortinet\FortiClient\Sslvpn\Tunnels\xxxx

show_remember_password from 0 to 1


and the configuration backup trick, where I changed 0 to 1 in the .conf file for show password.
The above methods only work when you first start the program. After using disconect, all values return to 0. The program does not remember the password and login.

HELP

Hello @infernovip ,

 

I think this is related to the FortiGate ssl-vpn portal configuration. If your firewall admin does not allow saving passwords, FortiClient will apply this setting after your connection.

Have a look also to this documentation, step #2. It should be possible to perform without EMS server as @ozkanaltas said:
