Maybe it's the way Notepad++ adds itself to the context menu, IDK, but this seems like a really old-school error. And the first such one I've found in Win7. Just thought I'd give everyone a heads up. :)

A Real Error
So it looks like I found a real error in Windows 7.
The issue is this: That config file is in the Program Files folder so modifying it requires administrative privileges. Simple enough (although Notepad++'s error wasn't so useful...). I zip over to the Notepad++ executable, right click, go to properties, the compatibility tab, and tell it to "Run with Administrative privileges." Really not complicated unless you're an end user. Click OK and save the settings. Zip back over to my .ovpn file, right click, and use the context menu "Edit with Notepad++" selection to open the file and this pops up.
