SOCKS Proxy
Hi
I have a SOCKS proxy which was working fine on my PC.
Now it works on my VM but does not work on PC; (It doesn't respond)
I've reset Internet Explorer settings and also tested it with Chrome and Firefox but the problem remains.
Could you help me?

Hi,
What is installed or updated recently on the computer? If the proxy worked before, please try the
system restore
first.
Usually, the proxy will be blocked by antivirus or firewall. Please perform
clean boot and disable your antivirus and firewall
temporarily to check the result.
Meanwhile, you can clear the proxy, then re-configure it for a test.
a. Open "Internet Explorer" -> Under "Tools" -> select "Internet Options" -> Click on the "Connections" tab -> Click "LAN Settings".
b. uncheck any option in this window.
c. Click "Start" ->type cmd in search box -> right click cmd and run as administrator.
d. type the following command:
proxycfg –d
