Cisco VPN client failed to enable virtual adaptor
I'm trying to connect to a server using Cisco VPN client 5.0.07.0290 on windows 7 but while it's trying to secure the communications channel it comes up with an error 'Failed to enable Virtual Adaptor'.
Can anyone shed any light on the problem?

I am facing the same problem Richard. Disabling ICS did not help. Could you update your question to let people know that (if) it did not work for you as well?

Ensure that the Internet Connection Sharing service is not running.
Found Here
Summary extract:
In Summary(or for some reason the above link is broken) this worked for me,
- Start Menu
- Network
- Click on Network Sharing
- Click on Manage Networks in the new window opened
- Right Click on Cisco Adapter and click on Diaognise.
- Reset the Network adapter
- Now it says there is limited connectivity.Ignore it and restart the machine.
- Now try connecting to VPN.Thats all.Now you are connected.

This is probably very late for Richard, but I am writing this for the benefit of other users who navigate to this forum due to its popularity.
First-off, I am using the Cisco VPN v 5.0.07..0440 on 64-bit Windows
In my case the 442 error was spawned by the display name of the virtual adapter getting modified in the registry after a VPN re-install (to resolve a separate issue).
The steps to fix this problem are as follows:
- Hit
windows+Rtyperegeditin the Search field and hit enter. - Navigate to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesCVirtA
- Find the String Value called
DisplayName
- Right click and select
Modifyfrom the context menu. - In Value data, remove
@oemX.inf,%CVirtA_Desc%;. The Value data should only containCisco Systems VPN Adapter for 64-bit Windows. - Click Ok.
- Close Registry Editor.
- Retry your Cisco VPN Client connection.
