6.33.7 Update for Windows client

Since everyone's working on their 'naughty-or-nice' scores... We heard that this is the recipe for a perfect release: something new, something better, and a dash of fixed bugs. Here's our attempt:

• New: Split tunneling. That's a super handy feature if you don't want some of your apps to run through a VPN connection. With split tunneling, you have the power to make VPN protection work best for you. Available in Windows 8.1 and Windows 10.
• Better: If you use Kill Switch for your apps, now you can also enable it for web apps and apps downloaded from the Microsoft Store. Oh, and the same goes for split tunneling!
• Fixed: Pretentious bouncer. This mischievous bug will no longer log users out from the app after restarting their PC or if the internet connection dropped for a moment.
• Fixed: Taskbar hogger. The app will no longer persistently stay in the taskbar if you set it to launch minimized.

I don't use Nord at the moment but for certain one of if the only issue I had (and with any VPN) was the lack of split tunnelling, this caused me issues with mail clients - Good to see it's now deployed!

I wonder how come they are so late in adding this important feature?

IVPN don't use split either - A $100 a year VPN, IMO every VPN needs this feature.

NordVPN client update for macOS - release notes:

VERSION 6.0.0 (App Store + Sideload)

We’re excited to introduce Presets!

• Presets combine custom VPN connection settings with shortcuts to apps or websites.
• You’ll find them super handy if you use VPN differently for different services – news, entertainment, downloads, you name it.
• Choose a protocol, a server country, add website links or apps, and your Preset is ready!
• Basically, Presets are like secure shortcuts – you set them up once and enjoy safe one-click access from the NordVPN app anytime.

NordVPN for Windows client update - release notes:

VERSION 6.33.10

• Fixed: Buzzkill. This bug will no longer prevent split tunneling from working smoothly.
• Fixed: Anti-sharer. Split tunneling will now work nicely even if you are using Avast's Web Shield. We can all get along.

Number one is a step backward for those who use NordVPN in restricted countries.
In such a case, a user needs to connect to a secondary VPN, log in to the NordVPN, and then turn off the secondary VPN.
