127.0.0.1 is the loopback IP address. This shouldn’t be proxied (unless you know what you are doing) so add an exception to your proxy settings.

FYI, Syncthing is working as expected and has opened a web browser to access the GUI. For some reason your browser has been configured to use the proxy even on the loop back address so you are trying to connect to port 8384 on your proxy server which is being refused.

Ah… you know what, I likely had Windows configured to run through a proxy at that time. Chrome honors Windows’ proxy settings, Firefox does not. Just tried proxy again and Chrome fails, but Firefox works.

It’s fine to close this issue. Hopefully, it will help others in the future.

There’s a checkbox in Internet Properties -> LAN settings -> Proxy server called “Bypass proxy server for local addresses”. Assuming that that’s where you set up your proxy server, you should check that checkbox.
