This article explains how to install and use cVPN, the University of Chicago secure VPN, on a computer running Windows 8 Enterprise.

Windows 8 VPN Connection Guide

The first time you use the VPN, you must be logged into an admin account. If you do not have administrative rights on your computer you will not be able to download the software. Also, we recommend that you have the latest version of Java on your computer before installing the VPN. You can find out if you have the latest version and download a new version at www.java.com.

USING THE VPN FOR THE FIRST TIME

  1. From the Windows 8 Start screen, open a web browser by clicking on the program icon, or selecting it from the Desktop.
