The solution is the add the following to the end of the configuration (ovpn) file:

route-method exe
route-delay 2

Finally, right click the shortcut, click properties, click on the “Compatibility” tab, and check the box for “Run this program as an administrator.”  You must run OpenVPN GUI as an administrator so that it will have access to create your routes.
