ProtonVPN on Windows 10: Use only for specific websties or specific browsers
Are any of the things possible with ProtonVPN on Windows 10
-
Is it possible to use ProtonVPN on Windows only from a particular browser -i.e. after connecting to Proton, if I am using 1 browser, it should go through the VPN, while another browser should use the native connection
-
Irrespective of browser, only some routes should go through the VPN, others through the native connection.
-
Opp of (2) - Only some routes through native connection, others through VPN
Proton VPN has an article on how to do one of the above on MacOS - https://protonvpn.com/support/vpn-bypass-macos/
But is any of this possible at all on Windows 10. https://protonvpn.com/support/vpn-bypass-macos/
Extremely easy to do on Windows 10, instructions below and reference:
- Open ProtonVPN
- select Settings in the app menu
- Then click on the Advanced tab and slide the “Split Tunneling” switch to ON
- The web browsers installed on your device will then appear in a drop menu. By selecting a browser, you will exclude it from our VPN service and allow it to use your regular connection.
- You can also select specific IP addresses that you do not want our VPN to cover by typing/pasting the IP address to be excluded into the space and clicking on the + button.
