How to use Proxifier

Proxifier is an advanced proxy client for Windows and macOS that lets you route specific applications through a proxy while keeping other apps on a direct connection. It’s useful when you need per-app routing, SOCKS5 with username/password authentication, or more predictable proxy behavior than system settings can provide.

Proxifier is a paid application, so if you don’t specifically need per-app routing, there’s usually no reason to install it. For everyday web browsing, it’s typically enough to set up the proxy directly in your browser.

Browser setup guides:

Google Chrome: here.

Mozilla Firefox: here.

Opera: here.

Step 1

Install and run Proxifier

Download the latest version of Proxifier from the official website.

Run the installer and complete the setup → Launch Proxifier

Then go to Profile → Proxy Servers...

Step 2

Adding a SOCKS5 Proxy Server

Click Add in the Proxy Servers window

Fill Address with your proxy IP or hostname (use port 1080 for a SOCKS5 proxy)

Select the SOCKS5 protocol and enable Authentication

Enter the username and password for your active proxy service (not your account password). You can find your services in your client area: https://fineproxy.org/account_new/dashboard

Step 3

Enabling System-Wide Tunneling

To route all outbound traffic through your SOCKS5 proxy, update the Default rule:

Go to Profile → Proxification Rules…

Select the Default rule, then choose your proxy from the Action dropdown

Click OK

Step 4

Routing Only Selected Applications

You can also use the proxy only for certain programs while keeping others on a direct connection:

Open Profile → Proxification Rules… → Add

Under Applications, click Browse and select the executable file for the app you want to route through the proxy.

Under Action, choose Proxy, then select your SOCKS5 proxy and click OK to save the rule.

You can repeat this process for any apps that need to use the proxy.

Proxifier processes rules top to bottom.

Place application-specific rules above the Default rule.

Where can I find my FineProxy credentials for Proxifier?

Open your active service in the FineProxy dashboard. Use the proxy host, port, username, and password shown for that service.

Should I enter my FineProxy account password?

No. Use the proxy authentication password from your active service, not the password you use to sign in to your FineProxy account.

How do I verify that the Proxifier proxy setup works?

Open an IP-checking website after enabling the proxy. The detected IP and location should match the proxy you configured.

What should I check if Proxifier cannot connect through the proxy?

Confirm the host, port, protocol, and authentication details first. Then disable any conflicting VPN or proxy profile and reconnect.
