im not sure fully what details you need
Basically im getting a polkit error when i try to run ProtonVPN
the error is
Admin access is needed to connect to VPN, Either enable polkit support from within the app or launch app from terminal.
I enable polkit support but it then asks for a password not via the app but via my own machine and does not accept the password
running in terminal is the same issue with polkit and password
logging into my vpn in windows/mobile with username and password is fine
Hi @shrooms
Did you follow this guide?
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ProtonVPN
I would recommend using the normal NetworkManager for VPN.
I use protonvpn - if not daily - then very often.
There is - or has been - an issue with Network Manager.
When I switched my system to connman - the problem disappeared.
At the moment I am using static network (ethernet) setup on my workstation using netctl and systemd-networkd - this also works without hickups.

I guess you are using the gui ?
