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 and enter proxy details

Go to Proxy Servers and Add a new proxy.

Specify the following if you purchased Dedicated Datacenter Proxies via the dashboard.

Type: HTTPS or SOCKS5

Host: ddc.oxylabs.io

Port: 8001

For Self-Service Dedicated Datacenter Proxies, the port indicates the sequential number of an IP address from the acquired list.

3

Fill in your proxy credentials

Enable Authentication and enter your Oxylabs proxy user’s credentials. Use the same username and password you entered to create a new proxy user in the Oxylabs dashboard.

NOTE: The screenshots below show an example using Oxylabs' Residential Proxies. If you're using Dedicated Datacenter Proxies, adjust the proxy details accordingly.

4

Enabling 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, Mobile Proxies, Enterprise Dedicated Datacenter Proxies, and Datacenter Proxies.
