### Understanding the Issue

**This error can happen due to the following reasons:**

* The account's plan has expired for more than 72 hours, leading to proxy deactivation.
* The process of adding the account was interrupted and not completed.

### Solution

**To resolve the “Proxy Missing” error, follow these steps:**

1. Go to the **Accounts** tab.
2. Click on **Open Settings** for the account with the issue.

3. Navigate to **Proxy Settings** and select a proxy to activate.&#x20;

* We recommend choosing a Primary Proxy from the nearest location: **Germany**, **Singapore**, or the **USA**.&#x20;
* An icon labeled **Selected** will appear next to the chosen proxy. Ensure you’ve selected the closest proxy to your location.

```
GET https://docs.onlymonster.ai/troubleshooting/proxy-missing-error.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
