I'm trying to get the proxy support working on windows 10, but it won't work. So I'm asking for your help.
Wich rclone version I'm using
rclone v1.58.1
os/version: Microsoft Windows 10 Pro 21H2 (64 bit)
os/kernel: 10.0.19044.1526 (x86_64)
os/type: windows
os/arch: amd64
go/version: go1.17.9
go/linking: dynamic
go/tags: cmount
What did I try?
I tried to invoke rclone like this
set http_proxy=http://my-proxy:3128/
rclone lsd test:/
But this idles forever.
I also tried to use the proxy in filezilla, and there it worked. So it's not about the proxy server itself I guess.
Then I opened up a server on localhost port 3128 (WSL: nc localhost -l 3128) and set the proxy to http://localhost:3128, but the server did not show any connection attempt.
I also tried to use the rclone-browser which provides settings for the proxy. But this wasn't working either.
Well, I'm out of ideas. So it would be great if someone of you can help me.
Many thanks in advance for any help.

You are trying to use an HTTP proxy for an FTP server which won't work. You'd want to set ftp_proxy but rclone doesn't support it at the moment I don't think.
When I did a search in the git repo, there was no evidence of http_proxy in any of the go source code. So I guess this is somehow managed by the go libs themselves.
So, go doesn't support the ftp_proxy env var at the moment?! Sadly I did not find any reference in go yet.

Nevermind,
rclone is an excellent software, from what I've seen so far. It just does not fit my requirements at the moment.
So I have written a powershell script using WinSCP.net. This is nothing compared to rclone but it's working for me.
Thanks to any one trying to help. This is a great community.
Best Regads, -chris-
