Proxifier

Proxifier is a universal proxy enabler for Windows, macOS, and Android that allows applications that don't natively support proxies to connect to the internet through a proxy server.

This guide will demonstrate how to set up Oxylabs' Dedicated Datacenter Proxies with Proxifier.

1

Download Proxifier

Download and install Proxifier and make use of the 31-day free trial. On Windows, you can also get a portable version.

NOTE: Before adding proxies, disable VPNs, in-app proxy settings, or operating system proxy settings you might already have to avoid conflicting or double reroutes.

2

Add proxy

Go to Proxy Servers and Add a new proxy.

3

Enter proxy details

Specify the following if you purchased Dedicated Datacenter Proxies via sales. Make sure to also enable authentication:

Protocol: SOCKS5

Address: 1.2.3.4 (IP address from your proxy list)

Port: 1180

Username: USERNAME

Password: PASSWORD

For Enterprise Dedicated Datacenter Proxies, choose an IP address from the acquired list.

4

Enable proxies for a specific application

Go to Proxification Rules and Add a new rule.

Browse for an application (locate an .exe file) and select your newly added proxy as an Action.

You can rearrange the proxification rule priority from top to bottom.

NOTE: The Default rule applies to all connections if you don’t have a custom rule on top of it.

This guide is also available for Residential Proxies, ISP Proxies, Self-Service Dedicated Datacenter Proxies, and Datacenter Proxies.
