I needed to capture connect traffic and do it from a script. I created a PowerShell script that downloads fiddler, installs it, modifies SampleRules.js to add a rule to dump only connect traffic, and starts fiddler. Then later with a different script param I stop capturing, dump the connects, quit fiddler, and uninstall it.

The problem is that since doing this anytime I start fiddler now it ONLY capture connects.

How can I get it to go back to capturing everything?

Script is attached, but I gave it a jpg extension since ps1 is not allowed.

Thanks,

Rick

Hi,

When modifying the SampleRules.js file, the rules also get saved in the CustomRules.js file ( located in Documents/Fiddler2/Scripts folder ). When performing a silent uninstall of Fiddler, this script folder isn't deleted and therefore some custom rules can remain in the newly installed version. Could you, please, check if this file exists in your Fiddler2 folder and delete it.

I have the same problem. I've deleted folder Documents/Fiddler2 but still have this problem.

Hey Ed,

You could delete the whole directory and reinstall your Fiddler to completely revert its default settings.

I found the problem. It shows only http, but I don't see https (I see it as CONNECT requests). I've installed root certificate and checked "capture https connects" and "decrypt https traffic" but it still doesn't work. 

The program worked normally, but it was about 1 year ago, I didn't use it for this period. And now I have this problem
