I am using a SSH tunnel to connect to the internet on my host Windows machine. I am using proxifier to send all my traffic though port 1080 which is the proxy port. However, proxifier or selecting the proxy using windows "Proxy Settings" in settings menu doesn't seem to route WSL traffic though the proxy..

My question is how can I route WSL traffic through the proxy.

I also tried letting port 1080 though firewall (both inbound and outbound) and trying to send wsl data though proxychains to socks5 <host_IP> 1080. That didn't work either...
