OpenVPN windows client remove (cached?) effect of config files (*.opvn)

openvpn

I have an OpenVPN client working on a Windows 7 machine. It works because of some config files (*.ovpn, *.crt, *.key, and *.conf). Now for troubleshooting purposes I want to test with another set of config files. So I saved away the original config files (originally located in C:\Program Files\OpenVPN\config, now I moved them into a sub-folder called old_files). However, I noticed that files are still taking effect — my client still connects with the old settings. It seems the values of the config files have been cached some where. How do I clean up this cache?

I just wanna add some things. I use the "Import files ... " in client list in Taskbar. And at first I cannot remove any of them because it's not existed in C:\Program Files\OpenVPN\config like normal.

And I found out another folder they also used to get config: C:\Users\<your user name>\OpenVPN\config . Just delete the config file you want and done.
