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.
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 Type | Examples | Solution |
---|---|---|
Antivirus | Various | Disable or whitelist Indigo |
Firewall | Windows Firewall, etc. | Add exception for Indigo |
VPN | Any active VPN | Temporarily disable |
Proxy Applications | Proxifier, SocksEscort | Uninstall or disable |
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
- Connect through a VPN
- Try a different WiFi network
- Use mobile hotspot as a backup

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