Forticlient VPN ARM processer

Hi,
We bought an Microsoft Surface Pro 9 which has an ARM processer.
The point of buying this was to hook it up with the Fortinet VPN, so we could go anywhere and still be connected.
Problem is i can't install it on the Surface Pro 9, due to having an ARM processer.
I was wondering if there was any early access or beta for Forticlient VPN for ARM processers that we could try?

Or is there any other solution?

I tried the Microsoft store app, but that doesn't seem to work with SAML.
The VPN connection is SAML with Azure.

FortiClient for ARM is now available on the support portal. Look for the version 7.4.3.

 

If you're having difficulty finding the installer, you can download it directly from our Download Portal. https://www.fortinet.com/support/product-downloads

if you encounter the error message 'Sorry, you don't have any product covered by a Fortinet support contract'. please make sure that you're using an account with a valid support contract at least one registered device.

Best,

Work for Surface 11 Pro!

As said you have to :

- get the ARM installer

- lauch the ARM installer in a session with admin right

- go to the temp folder C:/{user}/AppData/Local/Temp/FCT_{....} and copy the ForticlientVPN.msi file on you desktop

- End the ARM installer

- Launch the ForticlientVPN.msi file, and go throught the install. (! from a admin account)

After this, the Forticlient VPN must be running in the taskbar, you can configure and save your profile.

Thanks to Nk2C2  for the help!
