Is it possible in Windows 8 to tell an application which network connection to use if the computer is connected to several networks at the same time?

There is a Win8 laptop connected to 2 networks at once, one via WiFi, the other via Ethernet.
Through Wi-Fi, only the internal network is available, and access to the Exchange server, you can go to the Internet via the ezernet.
Tell me, is there any way in Windows to tell applications which connection interface to use?
So that you can keep 2 connections raised at once, and not shuffle them every time.

Applications can only specify a proxy that will be available on a specific network. In another case, the routing table will help you, in which you can enter routes for each service used by applications, for example, let all traffic to Aix through Wi-Fi.

As I understand it, your problem is that in both DHCP subnets, just two default gateways come in, and possibly two DNS as well. Otherwise, there would be no problem in principle, and the system itself figured out where to go.
If so, then the easiest option is to simply configure one of the connections with your hands.

Routing will help you, the ROUTE command
