I did exactly the steps that were shown to me. I also replaced the configuration file. I can access all websites except check for updates.

Then you can try modifying config.ini of HTTPSProxy. As I told you my provided config file is working perfectly for me but maybe not for you. Or you have a problem with HTTPSProxy's generated HTTPSProxyCA.crt certificate.

I am now using your configuration file. Unfortunately still the same error.

@maile3241 Is your Windows XP vm activated properly meaning genuine? Afaik you had problems due to validating. Btw check PM on MDL!

The certificate error photo is of my vm and is enabled because it worked with ProxhttpsProxy, only with httpsproxy I get the error. The photo with the validation is from a real computer.

At first avoid running both in RAM. That won't work at all. You have to exit the unused one to use the other. If that doesn't help try modifying this section of config.ini:
### Ignore SSL certificate verify, USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!
### Proxy setting still effective
[SSL No-Verify]
urs.microsoft.com
c.microsoft.com*
*one.microsoft.com*
download.windowsupdate.com
cc.dcsec.uni-hannover.de
fe2.update.microsoft.com
www.update.microsoft.com

In your uploaded config file of ProxhttpsProxy you've got only *update.microsoft.com in this section. So disable the other entries related to Microsoft by setting # in front of each line! Maybe it is working for you. In my system I do not need to change anything.

This sentence does not make any sense at all.  Here my grammatical analysis: "The certificate error photo is of my vm and is enabled because it worked with ProxhttpsProxy". Sorry, no! Please be more accurate in your statements! I only can guess what you mean but I would like to read it. :)

Run ProxhttpsProxy on the host (real) system - Win10/7/whatever that is (your answers were kinda contradicting...).

Set the VMs to use it for HTTPS proxy only - leave HTTP, FTP, SOCKS blank.

Also, update cacert.pem in the ProxhttpsProxy folder.

Windows 10 is my host system. I've done your steps, unfortunately it doesn't work. For whatever reason.

It was already entered because I'm using your config file.
P.S. Sorry. I actually made a mistake. I meant that Xp is fully activated on my Vm.

I still have assumed you are using my config file but you said it wouldn' t work for you. Therefore I suggested to modify the mentioned section in this file:

Can't you... you know... pick one system and stick to it until solved, then go to the others?!

To avoid further confusion, move all the proxies to the host and delete them from the VMs.

This way you have to modify a single config.ini
