Environment Variables not working in WSL





.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}

I have used the commands export http_proxy=address:port and export https_proxy=address:port to set http and https proxy in bash in WSL. But every time I open bash, the environment variables are becoming empty. I tried setting up these variables in /etc/environment and ~/.bashrc too.



I am using bash.exe command in cmd promt to open bash.
