Hi Sin LnwZa,

 

Fiddler Classic is an HTTP/HTTPS proxy, and your application needs to respect the system proxy and be able to trust the Fiddler's certificate. There might be a different reason why the application traffic is not showing up in Fiddler - it could be using a different protocol, disregarding the system proxy settings (or failing to detect its change), etc.

Not sure what the other tool is doing, but it looks like it is capturing data from a lower level (from the OSI model) where Fiddler operates between layers 5 and 7.
