Proxifier + Nord VPN in split tunneling mode turn off internet

Post by cosorin238 » Tue Jun 07, 2022 6:35 pm

Hey guys. This has nothing to do with Open VPN, but if I can get help anywhere, it's here. I use proxifier, it has nothing to do with NordVPN, and for clarity, I will say that there is not a single active rule, just enabled. So, if I turn on the NordVPN with the enabled Proxifier, everything is fine, no problems. But I don't need a full VPN, only for certain applications. So I try to enable split tunneling (only for selected apps), and then the problems begin. When connected to the VPN, internet stops working at all. But once I close Proxifier - everything immediately becomes perfect. So my question is, why exactly split tunneling can't work properly with Proxifier and what I can do with it?

Proxifier says: “(Automatic DNS mode detection) Local DNS service is unavailable. Name Resolution through proxy is enabled.” and it starts pouring errors from all connection

What does your ${sanitized} client config look like ?
