Is there a way to add Windows Store apps such as Netflix to Norton Secure VPN split tunneling?

Posted: 05-Sep-2021 | 7:35AM · 2 Replies ·

Upon trying to use the Secure VPN split tunneling feature, I discovered that Microsoft Store apps such as Netflix that hide the .exe for the app are not able to be added to the split tunneling. Is there a work around, or will Norton be adding a feature to add apps such as this to the split tunneling feature like other VPN's? Can anyone offer suggestions on how to fix or add split tunneling for Netflix?

Hello. Programs and apps downloaded from the Microsoft Store are installed in the following path by default: C:/Program Files/WindowsApps (Hidden items). To check hidden items, open This PC, click View and select Hidden items. You will need to obtain permission to view this folder. To obtain the permissions:

Double-click WindowsApps, go to Continue > security tab > Advanced > Change. Enter the current account name in the pop-up window and click OK.

Once into the directory you can then see the path to add each program as desired, into the split-tunneling feature within Norton. Please let us know whether this works for you.
