Socks proxy support #3929

Closed fxzxmicah closed 8 months ago

fxzxmicah commented 8 months ago

It seems that Windows App SDK only supports socks4 and not socks5? Can anyone confirm that? I am not a developer, but I found this phenomenon on my computer.

fxzxmicah commented 8 months ago

At the very least, search in taskbar and Microsoft Store do not support socks5.

bpulliam commented 8 months ago

WinAppSDK and socks are indepndent of each other - it is neither supported or unsupported.

fxzxmicah commented 8 months ago

@bpulliam So, what is the reason why applications based on the Windows App SDK do not support Socks5?

Scottj1s commented 8 months ago

@fxzxmicah Can you elaborate on the SOCKS5 support you want from Windows App SDK? Proxies are transparent to network connections. Are you looking for a SOCKS5 management API?

fxzxmicah commented 8 months ago

@Scottj1s I just want to figure out what caused taskbar searches, Microsoft Store, and some other WindowsAppSDK based or UWP applications not to support Socks5 proxies. I don't know if this is related to the WindowsAppSDK or if it's just caused by Windows itself.

@keith-horton or @aschoorl can you help redirect?

yesayi-hovnanyan commented 8 months ago

@fxzxmicah, Windows WinINet and WinHTTP stacks support only the SOCKS4 Proxy protocol.

fxzxmicah commented 8 months ago

@yesayi-hovnanyan Fine. In 2023, this is indeed too outdated.
