Unable to change DNS servers in Windows 10 Home & Pro
Good afternoon all,
I've been trying to change DNS servers for the best part of a day but Windows 10 (both Home & Pro) is steadfastly resisting my attempts.
I've set the IPv4 adapter settings for both Google and OpenDNS servers but when I run the DNS Leak Test (dnsleaktest.com) it always displays my ISP's DNS servers. I don't get this problem with either macOS or Linux.
I've run gpedit.msc (on Pro) to enable 'Turn off smart multi-homed name resolution', then re-booted, but the result is always the same - leak test shows ISP's DNS servers.
Ok, this isn't a major issue when I'm connect to my ISP, but it rather defeats the object when I use VPN.
Am I missing something? Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction :)
TIA,
Steve
