Using Fiddler to monitor network traffic from the VS Emulator for Android

This post details the steps to configure the Visual Studio Emulator for Android to monitor network traffic using Fiddler. It covers installing the latest versions of the emulator and Fiddler, configuring Fiddler's connection settings (allowing remote connections, reusing connections, setting the listening port), and obtaining the emulator's IP address. It also outlines the process of configuring the emulator's Wi-Fi settings to manually proxy traffic through Fiddler, including setting the proxy hostname and port. A crucial step highlighted is closing Fiddler before starting the emulator to avoid startup interference.
