I can't work without CheckPoint VPN and Windows 10 version 1703 update prompt me to remove CheckPoint VPN:

enter image description here

I have old E80.51 version of CheckPoint.

For latest E80.64, E80.65 versions Check Point Endpoint Security Client support for Microsoft Windows 10 Updates page says:

1703 Creators Update Redstone 2 Planned for Q2 2017

Is it right that I should postpone 1703 Creators Update until CheckPoint provide solution?

Are there any other alternatives (I use password based authentication)?

UPDATE

Update 1604 for Configuration Manager Technical Preview – Available Now! says:

VPN for Windows 10 – You can now deploy VPN profiles with 3rd-party providers to Windows 10 devices managed with ConfigMgr client. These providers include Pulse Secure, F5 Edge, Dell SonicWall, and Checkpoint.

What does that mean?

UPDATE 2 I tried Check Point Capsule VPN available for Windows 10 but not succeed to connect.

Latest available E80.65 version also is banned by Microsoft Update. I postpone update until solution become available.

Checkpoint engineer answered to wait for new Checkpoint build:

Upgrade to Windows 10 Creators Update, Check Point Mobile not compatible

that should be released soon.

40 days left from that statement... here it is E80.70 Remote Access Clients for Windows

For those who still want to defer update the best solution is to stop Update Service:

cmd> sc stop wuauserv
cmd> sc config wuauserv start= disabled

E80.70 Remote Access Clients for Windows

E80.70 was released on Sunday. I was able to install Windows 10 version 1703 after updating to E80.70. VPN works, at least on our corporate setup.

According to Checkpoint Support Center, Windows 10 1703 (AKA Creators Update) is officially supported with Check Point Endpoint Security Client version E80.70.

Fall Creators Update Windows 10 1709 is still not supported.

You can download Checkpoint VPN client E80.70 from here.

If an unsupported version of the Client is installed it may be the reason to Windows 10 Upgrade 1703 errors, like this one that I got from System Center 1702: 0xC1900208(-1047526904)

Release changes from Checkpoint:

What's New in E80.70

This release supports all Software Blades and features of previous releases. It adds support for Windows 10 Creators Update (version 1703) and support for new VPN and improved features.

If you have a service contract with CheckPoint, you can download E80.70 as Early Availability (BETA) that works with Creators Update.

Check Point Endpoint Security client version E80.72 works fine with the 2017 Fall Creators Update of Windows 10 (version 1709/build 16299).
