How to use VPN without being disconnected on RDP?
I have a windows vps and I install VPN client called VPN Gate. Now the problem is when I'm connecting to my vps via RDP and turn on the vpn within the server I instantly get disconnected from my RDP session and can no longer login back in until I reboot my vps. Is there any way to use VPN Gate on my vps without being disconnected from RDP?

Hello,
For our clients following usually worked:
With that, everything should work fine
Use a vpn with tunnel options, like https://windscribe.com/features/split-tunneling/
When you turn the vpn at vps, the vps get a new ip, thats the reason you disconecct from rdp, try Split tunneling example when tur in the vpn only works with "Firefox"
I assume you mean vpngate.net if that's so it depends on what protocol you want to use (sstp,ovpn,l2tp etc) no matter what you want to use you have 3 options.
1- use a vpn that allows to set system proxy this will allow you to only use the vpn in most browsers and certain apps
2- use a vpn that allows you to bypass port 3389 (which is used by RDP)
3- use a vpn what allows you to tunnel only a certain apps such as the previous comment
Drop to CMD prompt (run as admin)
//Enable the High Power
powercfg -setactive 8c5e7fda-e8bf-4a96-9a85-a6e23a8c635c
//Disable Monitor sleep
powercfg -Change -monitor-timeout-ac 0
powercfg -Change -monitor-timeout-dc 0
//Disable AutoLockout << this is prob your problem. If your RDP Is wide open people will just keep brute force guessing passwords. After so many failed logins windows locks you out.
net.exe accounts /lockoutthreshold:0
//Must DO Enable RDP Firewall

You can also change RDP port away from Default port for more added security.

In wireguard client uncheck block untunelled traffic and voila
I use tailscale and have no issue with RDP connection.
Enable split tunneling, then exclude traffic to your home ip(or the ip you're connecting to RDP from), then you should be able to connect via RDP, and any other traffic will be routed via the VPN.
