WebBrowsers don't obey ProxyFire rules
I am using ProxyFire portable v.3.42 on Windows to route all my system network traffic over LocalHost.
In MobaXTerm(same as Putty) I have set a SSH Tunnel by forwarding 127.0.0.1:4567 into my server.
Through this configuration , I expect every application's network traffic on my Windows , rout through this SSH proxy , Including Chrome !
But it seems Chrome doesn't obey Proxyfire rules. It doesn't affect on Chrome or I did something wrong.(other Apps are OK).
I have tried different web browsers such as IE and Edge but it didn't work.
It has problem with web browsers.
Here are screenshots :

Bellow you can see that it works great with Telegram but there is no Chrome ! :
Here is my Internet Option Lan Setting by the way :
I want to know why these configurations don't affect on web browsers ? And how can I fix that ?
Thanks
Solution 1:
Since you're using portable version of Proxifier you need to modify something in proxification engine section.
Go to Profile > Advanced > Proxification Engine... and there in both 32bit & 64 bit subsystem make sure Intercept network calls at
is set to WinSock Library (ws2_32.dll)
and Hook type
is Function Prologue Copy
then reboot your PC/Laptop and there you go! Also as a more easy & quick way just use the installable version instead of portable
