Fortinet SSLVPN client stuck at 45%

Hi experts. I have installed Forticlient 5.6.2.1117 on windows 7 which gets stuck at 45% with "Unable to establish the VPN connection. The VPN server may be unreachable. (-8)".  Any clues on how to solve this? I already uninstalled - rebooted - reinstalled... no success.

 

I have gone through the forum link  https://forum.fortinet.com/tm.aspx?m=130766 and they resolved by installed FortiClient and it UPGRADED the existing SSLVPN Client - now it works!

 

Can any one help me what is UPGRADED and any suggestions pls.

 

Thanks and Regards,

S
