Description
Proxyman version? (Ex. Proxyman 1.4.3)
Proxyman 1.4.3
macOS Version? (Ex. mac 10.14)
macOs Mojave 10.14.5
Steps to reproduce
- open Proxyman (Proxy Settings are active)
- force-quit the app (right click on app icon and hold down the option key while clicking 'close')
- other apps are unable to connect to the internet
- current fix for this is restarting Proxyman (and then optionally correctly shutting it down)
Expected behavior
- traffic of other apps should not depend on termination style (force quit / crash) of Proxyman
