This guide may be outdated. For an up-to-date guide please see our documentation.

What is Proxifier?

Proxifier is a leading proxy client designed to enable applications that don’t support proxies to work via SOCKS or HTTPS proxy and chains. It facilitates redirection of various internet applications including browsers, emails, databases, and games, through a proxy. It enhances control over corporate networks by enabling remote updates and access control to resources.

Key features of Proxifier include the ability to enhance connection speeds by finding faster routes, providing a lightweight alternative to VPNs with secure, encrypted channels. Its unique rule-based system lets you assign different proxies or chains to different connections, exceeding traditional limitations and ensuring remarkable flexibility.
