New VPN service

I got an email awhile back stating Firefox was going to offer a VPN service, with a 30 free trial offer. MY question is does the Firefox VPN offer a split tunneling option like other VPN services offer? From what I understand, split tunneling is a feature where the VPN service will be active, or connected in one browser but then it would be disabled or disconnected in another browser. Can you please explain if I got that correct? Thank you.

It does not support Windows 7 or 8.0/8.1

From the FAQ on bottom of https://www.mozilla.org/products/vpn/ What devices is Mozilla VPN compatible with? Windows 10/11 (64-bit only) macOS (10.14 and up) Android (version 8 and up) iOS (12.0 and up) Linux (Ubuntu 18.04 and up)

James, thank you for the reply. Understand Firefox VPN will NOT work with Windows 7. Unfortunately, I have Windows 7. So, I guess I'm out of luck.
