Summary: ExpressVPN recently disabled split tunneling on its Windows clients due to a bug that caused DNS requests to be redirected to a third party instead of their servers. The bug only affected certain versions of the software and less than 1% of Windows users. ExpressVPN released an update to disable split tunneling entirely until the issue is resolved. Users can downgrade to an older version if split tunneling is necessary.
