How to enable 'SplitTunneling' in Windows 10

On Windows 10, when connected to a VPN connection, the computer cannot connect to other areas of internet. This is because of an issue in Windows 10 settings which doesn't allow the IPV4 properties of the VPN connection to be modified via settings (or via Control Panel). To get around this, the following fix can be used.

Open the Windows PowerShell (Windows key+S, search for PowerShell, press Enter when the search completes). In the PowerShell, type the following commands:

To display the list of VPN connections:

PS C:\> Get-VpnConnection

From this list pick the connection for which SplitTunneling needs to be enabled, and then run the following command.

PS C:\> Set-VpnConnection -Name "MY_VPN" -SplitTunneling $True

After this is done, run the Get-VpnConnection command again to ensure that the settings are saved. That's it!
