Hi,

Hope these links answer your question.

https://community.fortinet.com/t5/FortiClient/Technical-Tip-FortiClient-licensing-and-support/ta-p/196327 - FortiEMS license would be required

Maybe try , https://docs.fortinet.com/document/forticlient/7.4.2/xml-reference-guide/302055/enabling-vpn-always-up , backing up the config and edit it, then import it back.

    To enable the "Always Up" feature in FortiClient, ensure you have an active EMS (Enterprise Management Server) license, because this feature is managed via EMS. Check if your FortiClient version supports it and confirm proper configuration in EMS. No additional hardware is needed, but licensing is crucial.
