Where Does Proxifier Store Profiles and Rules?
Proxifier keeps proxy rules and chains in profile files, exchanged as .ppx documents between installs.
Last updated
Proxifier stores rules in profile files. Proxy chains, hostname rules, and DNS handling live there in .ppx format. The app data folder holds working copies alongside logs.
That file format is the migration path. Export before reinstalls and keep a copy with system docs. Exact filenames vary by version, so prefer in-app export over folder copies.
Where Proxifier stores this, by platform
%AppData%\Proxifier
Working profiles plus logs under app data. Exchange rules as .ppx files through in-app export. Filenames vary, so export beats copying.
~/Library/Application Support/Proxifier
Same profile model on Mac under Application Support. .ppx files move between platforms cleanly. Licenses activate per machine separately.
Frequently asked questions
How do I move Proxifier to a new computer?
Export the profile to a .ppx file and import it on the new machine. Rules, chains, and DNS settings travel together. License keys activate separately per seat.
Do Proxifier profiles work across versions?
Yes through standard file exchange. Profiles carry no machine binding. Version-match both ends when rules use newer match features.
