Use fiddler only for some processes


I was wondering if I could use Fiddler2 on only some processes instead of all applications which use system proxy settings. I know there is a filter option in Fiddler2, but as far as I know, it only hides information and the traffic is captured anyway.


Solution

  • There is a "Any Processes" button on fiddler toolbar. Drag the icon to a window to show traffic from only that process. Click the icon again to cancel the filter. This is the best and simplest way to filter by process.

    Or, in File menu, don't check the "Capture Traffice" item. Then set proxy in your others applications which need to be captured by fiddler.

    If you capture HTTPS, open the https config dialog(Fiddler Options >> HTTPS), you'll see a list box with these list items:

    • ...from all processes
    • ...from browsers only
    • ...from non-browsers only
    • ...from remote client only
