I use a VPN n my system which works properly in firefox, but does not work at all in librewolf. Both network settings are same. What could be the problem?

I presume your system is Linux and you installed LibreWolf as a snaps or flatpak package. When installed like this, the browser isn't aware of your system's proxy settings, you will need to set the localhost and port of proxy manually.

You are right, but is there a way to solve this. Now I'm using foxyproxy in LW for this reason, but it would be better to solve the problem and use the whole system proxy.

Try it with a new profile, so that there are no plugins and only default settings.

It didn't work.
