You may want to try using openvpn.

install openvpn
copy the .ovpn file you want to connect to the /openvpn/config directory in windows
Linux would be /etc/openvpn
In Linux you sometimes have have to give permission to copy files to /etc/openvpn
If so you do this
cd /etc/openvpn
sudo chmod 777 /etc/openvpn
you should now be able to copy the .ovpn file to that directory


open command prompt or terminal and cd to the directory that contains the .ovpn files that you downloaded.

The command to connect is
for linux
sudo openvpn --config "downloadedvpnfile.ovpn"
same for windows minus "sudo"

That's it, paste the .ovpn file between the quotes of openvpn --config ""
no spaces.
