Forticlient VPN ARM processer

[aspnovac]

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.

Same for me. I'm an external consultant and use the VPN-only client to connect to client NAS, so I don't have an active subscription. Please somebody can publish a link?

Hello, I downloaded the vpn-only client, but when installing the following error appears. I should be the x86 version....

hi @VincenzoG  - thanks for the update and testing. i have messaged you with the forticlient remover to clean reinstall the app.

Thanks @rtanagras! succesfully installed and working, but unfortunately there a timeout connection error. The VPN works correctly using Android app, so I guess that could be some settings. I will seek assistance with the client IT. 

Thanks again for your support, much appreciated

The released version of FortiClient for ARM (7.4.3) does NOT include all the features of the Windows version. An updated document will be released next week which includes list of features currently implemented. Other features will be gradually included in the ARM version in next versions.
