VPN - Error 741 The local computer does not support the required encryption type
If you see this error
Error 741 - The local computer does not support the required encryption type
Do the following
1. Go to Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network Connection
2. Locate your VPN adaptor and right click properties. Go to security tab
Then, you can try the following fixes
The error may due to
1. Encryption not strong enough
At Data encryption, changes to Maximum strength encryption
2. Wrong type of VPN
At Type of VPN, do not use Automatic. Change to a specific VPN type, for example, Point to Point Tunneling Protocol
3. Wrong Authentication
At Authentication, use the specific authentication method supply by your VPN administrator
4. VPN server is not using encryption at all
This is an irony but it does happens. To fix it:
1. At Data encryption, change to either No encryption allowed or Optional encryption
2. At Authentication, Check Unencrypted Password
