Help Wanted: Proxy testing #18103

Description

@joaomoreno

Hi! If you were pinged to this thread, it's because VS Code needs your help!

Users behind proxies have had a tough time lately, and we want to make sure we fix this. We've created a small app which will test your machine, network and environment to figure out which network stack works best for you.

How can I help?

We ask you to:

  1. Download and extract the appropriate ZIP for your platform
  2. Run it
  3. Type your proxy URL in the input box
  4. Click Run Tests
  5. Be patient, it should eventually be done
  6. Copy the test results to your clipboard
  7. Finally, reply to this thread with:
  • Details about your machine (platform, OS)
  • Details about your network (proxy type, is it a corporate environment)
  • A list of the network-related features that don't work for you in VSCode
  • The results of the test

Example reply:

I'm running Windows 10, I am in a corporate environment and I know my proxy address. I can browse VS Code extensions but I can't install them.

We thank you in advance!
