I noticed that with the new openvpn 2.3.9 and windows 10, when you connect to PIA VPN provider or perhaps any VPN provider and you do a DNS leak test, the DNS is not that of The VPN provider

Quick fix,

This forces windows to use the DNS of VPN provider as it should be.

Open the *.ovpn file provided by your VPN service with Notepad ++ and add the following entry at the end of the script and save.

block-outside-dns

this fix is for 2.3.9 or higher.

Use this link to test your DNS for leaks
