MoronNeedsHelp commented 7 months ago

I don't understand how to get this running on Windows. Whenever I open the proxy, it just closes instantly. What moronic thing am I doing wrong?

you can try my repack of proxy https://github.com/celguar/retro_proxy Just run Setup Retro Proxy.bat, it requires Win 10 1809+

Figured it out.

GUIDE for Win10

download and install python

run "ipconfig" in command prompt, take note of the ipv4 address

open cmd with admin, type "cd (the unzipped folder)"

type "waybackproxy.py"

open Settings > Network > Proxy

use setup script, use the autoconfig url to the open given in readme: "http://ip:port/proxy.pac" make sure "ip" is the ipv4 we found with ipconfig, and make the "port" 8888

Open browser, type the http address of the site you are looking for

Done!
