As a matter of course each profile additionally has a predefined rule called "Localhost." When this is empowered, Proxifier doesn't burrow nearby connections (loopbacks) on the PC. A few applications like Firefox can rely upon the loopback connections. You can alter or eliminate this standard, yet it is prescribed to keep it empowered except if you are certain beyond a shadow of a doubt that you have to burrow connections with 127.0.0.1 through a proxy.

If you want to use the proxy only for a specific application (ex: Google Chrome) add a new proxy rule.
