old windows issues[edit]

Note: this should no longer be an issue with current versions

Just FYI to fix issue with Cisco AnyConnect getting cannot initialize subsystem error after recent Microsoft Patches.

Please see the below link for additional troubleshooting steps regarding the Cisco AnyConnect issue:

  1. Close the Cisco AnyConnect Window and the taskbar icon
  2. Right-click vpnui.exe in the Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client folder. (I have it in C:\Program Files (x86)\Cisco\Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client\.)
  3. Click the Run Compatibility Troubleshooter button
  4. Choose Try Recommended Settings.
  5. The wizard suggests Windows 8 compatibility.
  6. Click Test Program. This will open the program.
  7. Close

Some people may need to repeat the above steps for vpnagent.exe. That is the local service that supports the client user interface.
