# Proxifier

[Proxifier](https://www.proxifier.com/) 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' [Residential Proxies](https://oxylabs.io/products/residential-proxy-pool) with Proxifier.

{% step %}

### Download Proxifier

[Download](https://www.proxifier.com/) and install Proxifier and make use of the 31-day free trial. On Windows, you can also get a portable version.

{% hint style="info" %}
**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.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Add proxy

Go to **Proxy Servers** and **Add** a new proxy.

{% hint style="success" %}
You can also use additional parameters to define geo-location (country, state, city, etc.) and manage sessions. For more details, check out [Residential Proxies documentation](https://developers.oxylabs.io/proxies/residential-proxies?_gl=1*1kw3cn3*_gcl_au*MTk4NzE4NjcwMS4xNzU0OTg4MDgw).

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