“Proxy Switcher and Manager” extension brings the power of proxy management to your browser. Using this extension, you can configure your browser to use a proxy server without altering your operating system’s network. The toolbar icon indicates the current type of proxy your browser is using (No Proxy Mode (Direct), Auto-detect Proxy Mode, Manual Mode (SOCKS and HTTPS), and PAC Script Mode). The extension is designed such that no resource is used while the panel is closed.
Features:
1. Supports profiles to store multiple proxy servers and switch between them when needed
2. Supports inline PAC script
3. Supports refreshing the PAC script from a remote server
4. Displays failed resources and the reason they failed
5. Supports badge text and toolbar color to differentiate between proxy profiles
Notes:
1. The toolbar icon is an indicator of the current proxy type. Place your mouse over the toolbar button to get more info.
2. The badge text displays the number of failed resources. Opening the panel, you can check these resources by pressing the “Error Log” button (this feature is disabled by default).
3. It is possible to search for free transparent or anonymous proxy servers in the manual proxy tab.
Why do I need this extension to alter my proxy?
By using a proxy server that sits intermediary between your computer and the internet, you can hide your real location or access websites that would otherwise be blocked.
Proxy Switcher and Manager is an open-source project.
At first, the extension worked pretty amazingly. But these days I found that the extension goes crazy sometimes
e.g. I set PAC script like this in a chrome profile
function FindProxyForURL(url, host) {
return “PROXY localhost:3148”;
}
but for some reason, sometimes when I launch the chrome browser and the profile, the script may be garbled like this
var pac_engine = (function module_fn(){var E={module_fn:module_fn},g_pac_engine={},g_log=[],local_redir;var regex_url2host…
This bug causing me two issues.
1. where’s my previous script?
2. what!? don’t tell me I’m now accessing to this website without the proxy but with my plain IP…
Thus, rated 3/5 for now. please fix & update the issue, devs. Thanks.
This is great and I’m using a local proxy 127.0.0.1 (Manual Proxy) but I was wondering if it is possible to exclude a website from using the proxy. For example I want a website to always stay on “Direct” mode. How can I do that?
Acabo de probar esta noche más de 10 extensiones de proxies, y esta es la ganadora indiscutible, la mejor interfaz, detecta correctamente cualquier proxy, busca proxies gratuitos automáticamente y al encontrarlos los activa automáticamente ¡Esta extensión es perfecta!

Easy to use .
Very handy and easy to use!
Please fix the “profile-renaming not work” and “Unstoppable popping exception” bug if possible!
Не работают настройка параметров расширения, не выпадают меню. У лисы всё нормально. Удалил к хренам, не ужели нельзя проверить на новыых версиях Chrome
Looks like once you set your own Proxy in the extension, it will be available for everyone
Пользуюсь больше года, чаще всего, чтобы использовать удалённый доступ к научным подпискам. Делает жизнь приятнее.
so bad
Nice and very handy.
I have only one problem. When a proxy is not available, many error bubbles interferes UI and you can not modify new proxy. Please fix this problem. Thank you
Lovely UI !
