If that other program really needs the VPN, presumably it will stop with an error the first time it wants to use it. As long as it doesn't use it, it won't stop.
I don't think you can influence that behaviour.

Question is:
Is there a way to keep one specific program from running, as long as another specific program IS NOT running?
Long story short:
I use a VPN, and sometimes amidst enormous multitasking, and confusion, I inadvertently shut off the VPN, while another program continues to run, which SHOULDNT be ran, unless I am connected to my VPN.
So, is there a way, that, on one of those occasions, where I inadvertently shut off the VPN by accident, that, the other program will be made to cease, or stop also, as a precautionary measure?
Thanks
