Tomaschek was using the Version 12 app for windows, and had the split tunneling feature turned on.
Split tunneling allows traffic to be routed through a VPN and the local data pipe at the same time.
When its activated, some apps send their traffic through the VPN, while others dont.
The feature will remain deactivated until the company can confidently say that the DNS issue was resolved.
It also suggested that most people shouldnt be too worried.
No other VPN protections, such as encryption, were affected, they added.
So, there is a chance that even with split tunneling turned on, your traffic was still secure.
For now, the feature remains disabled and users should keep an eye on ExpressVPN for the fix.
Split tunneling is available in Version 10 of the Windows app.
