How to setup both HTTP and SOCK5 proxies at same time on Windows 11 Education

Question

In fact, I cannot select the Sock5 protocol in manual proxy setting on Windows 11 Education.

Answer 1

Hello Winter Yu,

Thank you for posting in Q&A forum.

Windows 11's built-in proxy settings do not support SOCKS5 directly through the manual proxy setup interface. However, you can still configure a SOCKS5 proxy using alternative methods.

Here are a couple of options:

Option 1: Using a Third-Party Application You can use third-party applications to route your traffic through a SOCKS5 proxy. These applications allow you to specify which applications should use the SOCKS5 proxy.

Option 2: Using SSH Tunneling If you have access to an SSH server, you can create a SOCKS5 proxy using SSH tunneling.

Option 3: Using a Browser Extension For web browsing, you can use browser. These extensions allow you to configure SOCKS5 proxies directly within the browser.

I hope the information above is helpful.

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to let us know.

Best Regards,
