OpenVPN can't connect on Windows 8

I am new vpn user and I have configured an Openvpn server on my computer. I have tried several methods for example disabling of firewall but still not connect. Anyone can help me.

So what do you mean with 'Openvpn server on my computer'?
Outline your setup, show Config Screenshots, Logs and so on.-Rico

But still nothing.All wrong.
The sites you mentioned are companies that offer VPN services.
They have a VPN server that you can access with a "client", like your Windows 8 PC.I advise you to start with https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/vpn/openvpn/openvpn-remote-access-server.html
Then, stop reading, and look at these https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3Cq2kjCWM8odzoIzftS04A/videos - take the 2, 3 VPN "server" videos.
Btw : install this package :
When you finished setup your OpenVPN? server, and added at least one "client" (the visitor), you go to " OpenVPNClient Export Utility" and select :
Take that zip file, bring it to you Windows 8 PC, install and go.
