Simple DNSCrypt does not really have any documentation.
To get it to work on Windows, this is what I did:
- Main Menu
- enable all under configuration
- enable DNSCrypt Service – This is required! It's the on/off switch.
- Network Cards
- show hidden cards
- enable Local Area Connection (or whatever yours is called)
- enable VirtualBox Host-Only Network
- leave Loopback Pseudo-Interface 1 disabled
- Resolvers
- enable Automatic Mode
- Advanced Settings
- enable DNS Cache
- disable Block IPv6
- disable Force TCP
- disable Global Resolver (I think)
- Apply Settings after all of these.
I have not yet experimented with DNSCrypt Proxy's DoH (DNS over HTTPS).
VirtualBox compatibility
VirtualBox may be kind of fussy.
If it does not have network connectivity, try disabling and re-enabling VirtualBox Host-Only Network and applying settings. If that does not work, try restarting the appliance. If that doesn't work, try restarting VirtualBox.
Self-update
When you launch the app, it checks for new versions, and will not let you do anything until you install the update. So if you want to just change your current config, you are out of luck until you update.
