@ Gokhul Varman. Thank you so much for the prompt answer. rom documentation Microsoft introduced a new technology to replace LSP NDIS called WFP from https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg156122.aspx. It allows third party development of of windows filtering application. A similar product is Komodia redirector (http://www.komodia.com/products/komodia-redirector). Morealso the alst time i check WinDivert does not support HTTPS redirection . Would appreciate your insight. Thanks

HTTPS uses encryption to stop third parties intercepting and modifying the HTTP stream. So the short answer is no. In principle you could use WinDivert to launch a man-in-the-middle attack to gain access to the unencrypted HTTP stream. However this will be detected and the web browser will sternly warn the user that they are under attack and not to continue.
