Why would you want to do that?  But even though - you need to enable
routing on the box, if you want it to be a router.

No.  Only packets destined to the tun interface.

You didn't listen.  If the box is not operating as a router, it will NOT
forward packets for IP adresses not belonging to itself, but silently
drop the packet ("this is not for me, I am not a router, to hell with it").

Now I wouldn't know how to enable ip forwarding on Windows, and I wouldn't
even think of running an OpenVPN server on Windows, but supposedly it can
be done.  Let someone else chime in and answer that...
