Description

Description
Web pages fail to load completely (freeze during loading) when using Proxyman v6.1 on macOS while a VPN connection is active. The issue disappears immediately upon downgrading to v6.0.1.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Update/Install Proxyman version 6.1 on macOS.
  2. Enable a VPN connection on the macOS host machine. (Specifically, the user is sharing this VPN connection with other
    computers in their network via the Mac).
  3. Open private website under VPN (for example Jira) in a browser that routes traffic through Proxyman/VPN setup.

Current Behavior
The web pages remain frozen, do not finish loading, and eventually time out, even though Proxyman itself does not display any explicit error messages. The connection seems to hang midway.

Expected Behavior
The web pages should load completely and normally, as they did in previous versions (e.g., v6.0.1), without freezing.

reinstalling 6.0.1 fix the problem.
Environment
App version: Proxyman 6.1 (Working version: 6.0.1)
macOS version: 26.x

Research direction

Reproduce the freeze with Proxyman 6.1 on macOS while the host shares an active VPN connection, using a private site such as Jira through the Proxyman/VPN setup. Compare the result with version 6.0.1 and verify that affected pages complete loading without timing out.
