FortiClient Windows 11

When trying to connect to FortiClient on Windows 11, we get the following error: "SSL VPN Connection is Down"

 

We have tried connecting on all of our work PC which are Windows 11 but as soon as we click connect, it pops up this message.

 

Testing it on non-work PC's and other non work computers, it connects just fine.

 

Why is this even an issue with Windows 11?  Get it together Fortinet.....fix this. This should not be happening,

Try install Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable.

If it doesn't help then try install an older mature version like 7.2.5 or 7.0.13.
