PIA Regular Proxy

A VPN server address is an IP address or domain name through which you access the Internet. All traffic will be redirected through it. And the address is specified by the user, you can get it directly from the VPN-service, which provides such a service.

If your ISP blocks you from downloading torrents, turning on your proxy server is the easiest way around the blockage. How exactly this is done depends on the torrent client you are using. For example, in Qbittorrent you need to go to settings, open "Network" tab, check "Proxy-server" and manually specify its settings. The same way uTorrent is configured.

If Selenium is not working with Chrome, there are several common issues and solutions you can explore to resolve the problem. Here are some steps to troubleshoot:

1. Check ChromeDriver Version:

   • Ensure that your ChromeDriver version is compatible with the version of Chrome installed on your machine. You can download the latest ChromeDriver from the official site.

2. Update Chrome:

   • Make sure you are using the latest version of the Chrome browser. Selenium and ChromeDriver are often updated to match the latest browser releases.

3. Update Selenium WebDriver:

   • Ensure you have the latest version of the Selenium WebDriver library installed. You can update it using:

pip install --upgrade selenium

• Check ChromeDriver Path:

  • Verify that the path to ChromeDriver is correct in your script. Set the path using webdriver.Chrome(executable_path='/path/to/chromedriver').

• Path Configuration:

  • Ensure that the ChromeDriver executable is in a directory listed in the system's PATH environment variable. Alternatively, provide the full path when instantiating the webdriver.Chrome() instance.

• Headless Mode:

  • If you are using headless mode (--headless), try running without it to see if the issue persists.

• ChromeOptions Configuration:

  • Review your ChromeOptions configuration. Sometimes, specific options or arguments can cause compatibility issues.

• Firewall/Antivirus:

  • Check if your firewall or antivirus software is blocking Chrome or ChromeDriver. Temporarily disable these to test if they are causing the issue.

• Logs and Error Messages:

  • Check the console logs and error messages for any hints on what might be causing the problem. Selenium may provide useful information in the console output.

• Browser Window Size:

  • In headless mode, setting an appropriate window size might help. Add the following option to your ChromeOptions:

chrome_options.add_argument("--window-size=1920,1080")

11. Reinstall ChromeDriver:

    • Consider reinstalling ChromeDriver by downloading the latest version and replacing the existing executable.

12. Browser Profiles:

    • If you are using a browser profile, try without it to see if the profile is causing the issue.

13. Browser Settings:

    • Some browser settings or extensions might interfere with Selenium. Test with a clean browser profile or disable extensions to isolate the issue.

14. Check for Chrome Updates:

    • Ensure that your operating system and Chrome browser are up to date. Sometimes, compatibility issues arise due to outdated software.

15. Run in Non-Headless Mode:

    • If you are running your script in headless mode, try running it in non-headless mode to see if the issue persists.

16. Check for Proxy Settings:

    • If you are behind a proxy, ensure that your proxy settings are configured correctly, or try running the script without a proxy.

If the issue persists after trying these steps, you may need to investigate further based on specific error messages or behavior. Additionally, checking the Selenium and ChromeDriver documentation for the respective versions you are using can provide valuable insights.

In Key Collector settings, the user can specify parameters of the proxy server through which the program will connect to the network. In the application window, first select "Settings", then go to the "Network" tab and check "Use proxy". Its parameters can be set either manually or through a configuration file.

Before you change your proxy server, you should decide what kind of proxy you would like to install. There are a lot of choices, depending on your needs. Every buyer, when buying a proxy server, is given all the necessary information with the data for access - username and password, port, IP address. Without these data, you can't install and configure the proxy.
