Hi Jian,

The GUI is not really a part of the core project and the GUI we bundle
with Windows installers is not maintained actively. Fortunately a new
GUI based on the old one is under active development:

<http://sourceforge.net/projects/openvpn-gui>

I'm not sure what the new GUI can do, but any modifications /
enhancements should go there.
