I have a company VPN I need to connect to before I can remote into my workstation
How can I configure my home network to only route the remote desktop data via the VPN and let everything else on the machine go via the regular?

Adding a route to your home network fixes this.
Also, unchecking "Use default gateway [...]" on General tab of TCP/IP Advanced from your VPN connection Properties should fix it.
The gateway way is recommended, and routing only in case that does not work.
I'd appreciate some elaboration on the steps to do this, as well as how to ensure that it actually works. – user3258911 – 2015-09-10T22:01:56.893
If you unchecked the default gateway option, you can test relatively easy the default path by checking the external IP address used for browsers (check if reported IP is the local machine's connection one or the remote's one). As for the route, adding it is only one command line, but it depends on your current exact IP configuration. – Overmind – 2015-09-15T10:58:01.630

I fixed this on Windows 10 by enabling SplitTunneling. Firstly (thanks to Kent Chen): https://www.nextofwindows.com/how-to-use-local-internet-connection-to-access-internet-while-still-connected-with-vpn There is still the known issue.
You can configure split tunnelling using PowerShell:
From PowerShell, type:
Get-VpnConnection
If SplitTunneling is set to False, take note of the VPN name and enter the following command:
Set-VpnConnection "Demo VPN" -SplitTunneling1
Note: Replace "Demo VPN" with your VPN name
Verify SplitTunneling is now set to True
This should resolve your problem.

Hi - you'll need to contact the it dept in your company to find out whether 'split tunneling' is enabled on the vpn server. – Jim Nielsen – 2015-09-08T22:00:48.337
@JimNielsen though this looks quite local? (so maybe, what you speak of - split tunneling) isn't necessary? http://superuser.com/questions/12022/how-can-i-make-the-windows-vpn-route-selective-traffic-by-destination-network Though that link doesn't include specifying port. Not sure off hand if that matters
