Step 1: Download SwitchyOmega

We will now proceed with the Google Chrome version.
Step 2: Open SwitchyOmega Options
Once installed, click on the SwitchyOmega icon in your browser toolbar and select Options.
Step 3: Create a New Profile
You will notice that Proxy SwitchyOmega already comes with a default proxy profile. Now, if you want to create a custom one, click on New Profile in the left-hand menu.
While Proxy SwitchyOmega is an excellent tool for managing proxies, it doesn’t provide them. However, if you want speed and security, be sure that you avoid the risks of free proxies and choose our high-quality residential or datacenter proxies, built for performance, privacy and peace of mind.
Step 4: Name Your Profile
A New Profile window will pop up and here we'll need to type in the profile name and select the type of the profile, which is gonna be Proxy Profile. Then, just click on the Create button.
Step 5: Enter Proxy Details
Once the new profile page opens, we need to enter proxy details. You can simply grab them from Anonymous Proxies Dashboard.
- Protocol: Begin by selecting the type of proxy you’ll be using—HTTP, HTTPS, or SOCKS5—based on your specific needs.
- Server: Input proxy server address. For example:
200.23.56.8. - Port: Input port number. For example:
80.
Step 6: Authenticate the Proxy
If your proxy requires authentication, please click on the lock icon next to the server and port fields.
Once done, input your credentials as described below.
- Username: Use the username provided in Anonymous Proxies dashboard.
- Password: Same for the password.
Then, just click on Save changes.
Skip the authentication step if your proxy's IP is already whitelisted.
