Can't launch profile or connect to proxy

Most profile issues are related to proxy connection problems. If you've already tested your proxy and confirmed it's working, try the steps outlined below.

Check the Agent Status

First, verify the agent status in the top right corner of your screen - it should be connected. The agent is a desktop application that runs in the background and enables browser profile launches.

Important

Without connecting the agent, you won't be able to test proxy connections in your profile.

We recommend disconnecting and reconnecting the agent to restart essential processes:

See our complete guide on using the agent for more details.

Third-Party Applications

The following applications can interfere with Indigo and proxy connections:

Application TypeExamplesSolution

VPNAny active VPNTemporarily disable
Proxy ApplicationsProxifier, SocksEscortUninstall or disable
Best Practice

The most reliable solution is to uninstall interfering applications, but you can also try:

  • Temporarily disabling them
  • Adding Indigo to their whitelist/exceptions

Internet Service Provider (ISP) Issues

Your ISP might be blocking:

  • Proxy providers
  • Connections to Indigo
  • Specific ports or protocols

Troubleshooting Steps

  1. Connect through a VPN
  2. Try a different WiFi network
  3. Use mobile hotspot as a backup
  4. Test with a different internet connection

These steps can also help if you're experiencing slow speeds with your current ISP.

Reset Components

note

This action won't result in data loss - it only updates the application components that enable Indigo to work correctly.

  1. Disconnect the agent
  2. Navigate to: C:\Users\%username%\indigo
  3. Delete the deps folder
  4. Reconnect the agent and open any profile

This will trigger a component download process when you next open a profile.
