Chrome doesn't support extensions in Incognito Mode.
(Proxy-with-auth is done via Chrome extension)

Also make sure your proxy strings are in the expected format:

• user:pass@server:port

(And make sure your proxy server is working properly.)

yes you were right i had to .strip() my string :D, thanks dude!

[syedfaiqyazdani]

even in this format user:pass@server:port it shows a popup

Either a bad proxy, or you're trying to use SOCKS5 with auth, which isn't supported by Chrome: https://issues.chromium.org/issues/40829748
