Pivot VPN for Windows

Download Pivot VPN for Windows 10 and 11. Install in under two minutes, sign in once and protect your laptop, phone and TV with the same account.

Windows 10 (1809+) and 11

64-bit; ARM devices like Surface Pro X run via the compatibility layer.

Digital signature

Installer is signed with the Pivot VPN cert and passes SmartScreen without warnings.

WireGuard over WFP

Windows system filters block any non-tunnel traffic with kill switch on.

Auto-start

The tunnel comes up at Windows boot, before user login — background services stay protected.

Split tunneling

Exclude specific apps from the VPN — like local gaming or a printer.

One subscription

The same account works on macOS, Linux, Android, iOS and Android TV.

Install from the official site

Download the installer only from our site — third-party mirrors often swap the file. Run the .exe — Windows SmartScreen sees the Pivot VPN digital signature and lets it through without an "unknown source" warning. After install the app requests VPN configuration creation (standard Windows dialog); enter email and password — tunnel ready.

Why not from Microsoft Store

The Microsoft Store version has UWP sandbox limitations — some system integrations (WFP filters, pre-login auto-start) aren't available. The desktop client from our site runs in full mode with network filter rights and a kernel-level kill switch. If maximum leak protection matters — take the version from the site.

Kill switch at the WFP level

Windows Filtering Platform (WFP) is a system mechanism for filtering network packets at the kernel level. Pivot VPN uses WFP for kill switch: the rule blocks all outbound traffic except packets through the VPN interface. This is more reliable than any "workaround" via TAP adapters — even if the Pivot VPN app crashes, the WFP rule stays active until reboot or manual removal.

Split tunneling for apps

The Windows client has Split tunneling — exclude specific apps or processes from VPN. Useful for local gaming (low ping to a regional game server), banking apps with geo restrictions, corporate RDP sessions. Rules persist across runs — set once and forget.
