Log Files

Proxifier can save its output (log) to a file. Users can enable this feature in the Log -> File Log menu.

The following options are available:

• Disabled: Do not write a log file.
• Error Only: Write errors and program-critical messages only.
• Normal: Write errors and connection-related messages (open/close); recommended in the majority of cases.
• Verbose: Write all messages, including rule processing, DNS requests, and others.
• Debug: Write all messages and debug messages; generates an extensive number of messages and can be useful in troubleshooting.
• Debug and Traffic: Write a debug log into a file and save the traffic to dump files.

You can set the log directory using the Log -> File Log -> Set Log Directory command. The log messages are saved to a Log.txt file in this directory.

Traffic Dump

Traffic dumps (if enabled) are saved to the Traffic subdirectory as files with a .dmp extension. Proxifier creates two files for each connection: one for incoming and one for outgoing traffic. The name consists of the application name, the "TO" or "FROM" mark, and the date (year, month, day) and time (hour, minute, millisecond).

For example, a dump of an HTTP connection might be represented by the following two files:
chrome.exe (4472) TO www.google.com_80 AT 20200424 131552072.dmp
chrome.exe (4472) FROM www.google.com_80 AT 20200424 131552359.dmp
