 Windows 11 New QMR Feature and Big Start Menu Update

- per Petri

install a free OPenVPN server on AWS cloud for free for one year

 Yes, Free OPenVPN is free for 2 connections

You can follow a good Youtube video to do the install

initially in AWS, it will show 0.023 charge for t.small

that's ok

click subscribe

then you choose instance t2.micro which is free for free tier

then there is a problem with elastic IP which is not free

in my case, after a shutdown or reboot / restart of the VM, the public IP may change

so I need modify the network public IP in the openvpn to match the actual public IP

on the client side, remove the old profile, import the new one

when It fails , please check the log file

android openvpn client connection log is a bonus
