Proton VPN: Security & Convenience Now Together!
9 Feb
Summary
- Windows users can now use Split Tunneling, Kill Switch, and NetShield simultaneously.
- This update eliminates the previous need to compromise security features.
- Mac and Linux users will receive similar features via beta updates soon.

Proton VPN has resolved a long-standing compromise for its Windows users. Previously, enabling features like split tunneling meant disabling critical security options. Now, a recent update allows users to activate Split Tunneling, the Kill Switch, and NetShield all at once.
This breakthrough enables users to customize their internet traffic, such as streaming local content while securely downloading files, without sacrificing protection. The integration of these features provides the "Holy Grail" of VPN usage: enhanced security combined with user convenience.
While Windows users benefit immediately, Proton VPN is also extending these capabilities to other platforms. Split tunneling is available in beta versions for Mac and Linux. The company is working towards full feature parity across all operating systems, with updates for Mac and Linux users anticipated.
