Proxy

In this detailed step-by-step guide, we will take a detailed look at how to properly configure and optimize proxy settings on your computer for various programs individually — including popular browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Opera), messengers (Telegram, WhatsApp), email clients, and any other applications that require Internet access. In addition, I will explain how to quickly and effectively configure a proxy server for the entire operating system in one step, which can be useful in certain situations. For your convenience, all the necessary links to programs and tools have been collected in one place — you won't have to waste time searching for the right materials.

### Why is this necessary?

Proxifier allows you to assign separate IP addresses to each program. A specific example: Chrome works through one proxy, Opera through a second, and Telegram through a third.

This allows you to effectively manage multiple accounts, ensures security, and prevents blocking.

### What you will need:

You will need a high-quality proxy server (paid with guaranteed support or free for testing). The portable version of the **Proxifier** program — just unzip the archive and run it. Basic computer skills — don't worry if you're a beginner, as the instructions are written in simple language and will guide you through all the setup steps.

### Recommendations for choosing a proxy

When choosing a <a href="https://app.cyberyozh.com/blog/choosing-the-perfect-proxy-types-of-protocols-and-their-features" target="_blank">proxy server</a>, pay attention to the following important criteria: connection speed, stability, and level of anonymity. It is recommended to use only trusted services with a good reputation and technical support. It is also important to consider the geographical location of the proxy servers — it should match your intended use.

### Obtaining data for connecting to a proxy on the CyberYozh app
