Select which programs use which internet connection

I want the Remote Desktop Connection that comes with Windows to use my mifi connection as desired, and allow Lync and Outlook to continue to use my hard wired connection.

Is this possible?

Oh IC.  I can't install anything on my work computer.  Trying to keep Lync on the hardwired LAN and force RDP to always use wireless.

I cannot do that on my work computer.

If there is a command line operation that will let me run Remote Desktop Connection, and force it to use my wireless instead of my wired connection, then that is what I am looking for.

Please be very specific as to the command to type in your reply if possible.

Ok so what I did to get around the problem of not having the ForceBindIP available was to unplug my hardwired connection, connect to AWS through the RDP using my mifi connection on my phone.

Once I got logged into my cloud server, I was able to plug my hard wired connection back in, and still use both.
This works, but Lync tends to get disconnected.

I'd prefer to do this the hard way without the ForceBindIP app.

Can anyone suggest anything?

And, in addition; because you have been denied local admin privileges (which is why you can't install any software), command line utilities won't work either.
I agree Chris.  Bringing in a laptop with an external connection seems like the best option.
