HotCakeX not sure if you're still having this issue, but I was having a similar issue. Realized I had to allow LAN traffic with the VPN on. I use Windscribe and this provides the option to enable/disable LAN traffic. Sandbox traffic working after enabling (yeah, I feel dumb forgetting about this setting) and traffic is properly routed through my host's VPN.

That's good to know, thanks
no i don't have the problem anymore, I enter my VPN details in Windows settings (SSTP, IKeV2, PPTP)
