Objective

This article shows you how to download and install the Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client on a Windows Computer. This article is applicable only to Cisco Business products that includes the RV34x series routers and not Enterprise products.

Introduction

AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client is a modular endpoint software product. It not only provides Virtual Private Network (VPN) access through Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Internet Protocol Security (IPsec) Internet Key Exchange version2 (IKEv2) but also offers enhanced security through various built-in modules. Why use a VPN? A VPN connection allows users to access, send, and receive data to and from a private network by means of going through a public or shared network such as the Internet but still ensuring a secure connection to an underlying network infrastructure to protect the private network and its resources.

Cisco AnyConnect is compatible with Windows versions 7, 8, 8.1, 10 and later.

This toggled section provides details on Anyconnect licensing.

AnyConnect client licenses allow the use of the AnyConnect desktop clients as well as any of the AnyConnect mobile clients that are available. To try out AnyConnect on mobile devices:

Licensing Structure: Firmware versions 1.0.3.15 and later

As of March 2019, server licenses using AnyConnect for RV34x fimware version 1.0.3.15 and later are no longer required. Now you will need only a client license to download and use the Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client. A client license enables the VPN functionality and are sold in packs of 25 from partners like CDW or through your company’s device procurement.

We recommend the following user license for use with the RV340 Series:

L-AC-PLS-LIC= Qty=25 Duration=12

Licensing Structure — Firmware versions 1.0.2.16 or lower

If you have not yet updated your firmware, please do so now. Click here to visit the downloads page for the RV34X series. The server licenses for the old version are no longer available to purchase since it is no longer needed.

Want to know more about AnyConnect licensing? Here are some resources:

Step 1

Step 2

Navigate Windows File Explorer to the installer file. Double-click the installer to initiate the installation process.

Check your Downloads folder to locate the AnyConnect files. Browser based downloads are often deposited into the downloads folder on your device on windows. The path to the file often resembles C:\Users\[Your User ID]\Downloads with the C:/ referring to your devices storage drive.

Check the check boxes for the modules that you need to install.

All modules will be installed by default.

Step 5

(Optional) Check the Lock Down Component Services check box if the feature needs to be enabled. Enabling this feature will prevent users from disabling the Windows Web Security service.

In this example, Lock Down Component Services is not enabled.

Problems with installing the Cisco Anyconnect Client version 4.1.04011-web-deploy-k9 on Windows 10

I am having problems with installing the Cisco Anyconnect Client version 4.1.04011-web-deploy-k9 on Windows 10.

Before upgrading to Windows 10 I uninstalled (add / remove programs) the old client.

After upgrade to Windows 10 I want to install the supported version of Anyconnect but this failed. I receive the error:

«The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable.»

«Click OK to try again or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package «Winsetup-Release-web-deploy.mis» in the box below.»

I am running the installation as Administrator, the installation file is on my local C: drive.

I guess that the removal of the old version was incomplete and that the new installation is trying to remove files and/or registry settings but is missing an uninstallation file.

Event 11714: The older version of Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client cannot be removed.

On the internet I found related topics with the solution to use the Microsoft fix tool. This tool isn’t available for Windows 10.

Is there a new fix tool for this or is there an instruction to manual remove all old files and registry settings?

Thank you for your interest in Windows 10.

If you become disconnected from your installation point or network resource, reconnect and try to install the client again.

In this case, I would suggest you to disable (preferably uninstall) any security software installed in the system and then try installing the security software in compatibility mode.

• Right click on the driver, and click on Properties .
• Go to the Compatibility tab.
• Check the box for Run this program in compatibility mode for:
• Select Windows 8 in the list of Operating systems.
• Click OK .
• Double-click the driver file to install the driver and follow the onscreen instructions.
• Reboot your computer.

Check with the issue. Please post back your results for further assistance.

Great! Thanks for your feedback.

I tried but the purposed solution did work. I ran the installation file in compatibility mode for previous windows version and still got the error message.

In search for the solution for my problem I tried to install the client from the command prompt with elevated rights from c:\temp where I located the .msi installation file:

msiexec /fv anyconnect-win-4.1.04011-pre-deploy-k9.msi /lvx «c:\Temp\ac-Uninstall.log.txt”

Again the installations failed. This time with te message: The file «ManifestTool.exe» is not marked for installation.

Only option I had was to click on «Ok».

This time the log «c:\Temp\ac-Uninstall.log.txt” was created. In this log I found this line:

MSI (s) (E8:40) [07:42:34:275]: Product: Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client — Error 2753. The File ‘ManifestTool.exe’ is not marked for installation.

I searched on the internet for «error 2753» AND «is not marked for installation». I found this site that directed me to the solution:

In the registry I found the key that was causing the installation failure. I deleted the key in the following steps and after that I succesfully installed the new client.

To edit the registry, do the following:

1.Click Start and type regedit in the box.

2.A dialogue box will pop up with the following text: Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer? Click Yes.

3.Browse to the following location: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Installer\Products\

4.Within the Products folder, locate and delete the registry key which contains product information for Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client.

◦Each registry key within Products is an alphanumeric string. Select the first key and look on the right side for ProductName REG_SZ Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client. Go through each key in the Products folder until you find the one for Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client.

◦In my (this) case: [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Installer\Products\E8CB28D0EF413434EBCBFF65361793A3]

◦Your version of Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client might have a different name for this registry key.

◦I recommend making a backup of this registry key before deleting it.

5.Close the registry editor.

After this start the installation of the new Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client.

Christopher and Pete from Cisco support: thanks for your help in solving this problem and pointing me in the right direction!

Make sure your application is installed in a subfolder under «Program Files», and that only shortcuts are created under the «Programs» folder.

I once had the same error message but can’t remember which mistake I made: either forgot the subfolder, or mismatched «Programs» and «Program Files».

Sounds like you are installing to a WinMo phone and the phone has a security policy set by the provider. You’ll have to get the CAB signed (or decrease the device security if it’s allowed) to get the CAB to install.

What is your CAB file doing? In which directories are the files going? Are you trying to set certain registry values which might be protected?

Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client Web-based installation was unsuccessful

Recently I have seen this issue more and more. Basically when a user tries to install the Cisco anyconnect VPN Client on their home PC they get the attached error. Usally the work around is they already have the client installed and they just have to run the client from the start menu. However now I am getting reports of this issue from new computers (Windows 7) that have never had this installed before. If they try to perform the manual installation by clicking on the link in the message nothing will happen. Any suggestions on how to resoulve this issue?

We’ve had the same problem. Some of the things that have had success are:

adding the website to the Trusted Sites in IE

ensuring the certificate from the firewall is installed

sometimes clicking retry and running through it again works
