I did a test on https://ipleak.net/  via my vpn and I noticed it is leaking my isp dns on a Windows computer. Does anyone have a fix for this as it should only show my vpn dns server?

Check the config file. Otherwise change the route to the DNS server to have a lower route metric to loopback
Windows:
route add 1.1.1.1 mask 255.255.255.255 127.0.0.1 metric 10
Linux
ip route add 1.1.1.1/32 127.0.0.1 metric 10

You could get one that doesn't leak.  VPN Unlimited is also a relatively cheap VPN and I know it doesn't lead because I checked it.  You can get a week free trial to check the service:  https://free.vpnunlimitedapp.com/  The cheapest offer for it I found was on Stacksocial.  There's a coupon code DN40 that brings it down to $24 USD for five devices lifetime  https://stacksocial.com/sales/vpn-unlimi...bscription

I use Windscribe primarily, which also doesn't leak.  It's pricier though.  I like VPN Unlimited as my back up.  it's been solid.
