How to fix profile start and proxy connection issues
Having trouble with profile start or proxy connection issues in Multilogin? Don’t worry, it’s usually an easy fix! This guide will walk you through the steps to get things up and running smoothly again.
If a browser profile won’t start or shows a proxy connection error, first check the Multilogin status page and run “Check proxy”.
➡️ Select the browser profile → click “Check proxy” in the top menu.
If the proxy check fails, review the proxy traffic, connection details, and provider status. If the proxy check passes but the profile still won’t start, restart the desktop app, then continue with the troubleshooting steps below.
