# Google Chrome

## Method 1: Using Chrome Launch Parameters

1. **Close Chrome** if it's open.
2. Open **Command Prompt** or **PowerShell** (in administrator mode).
3. Navigate to Chrome's installation directory, usually found at:
   * `C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\`
   * or `C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\`
4. Enter the following command to launch Chrome with the `--proxy-server` parameter, specifying your SOCKS5 proxy:

   ```bash
   start chrome.exe --proxy-server="socks5://<proxy-server>:<port>"
   ```

   For example:

   ```bash
   start chrome.exe --proxy-server="socks5://127.0.0.1:1080"
   ```

   This will start Chrome and route traffic through the specified SOCKS5 proxy.
5. If you want to use HTTP proxy, **change socks5** in the above command to **http**.

## Method 2: Using System Proxy Settings

1. Open **Windows Settings**.
2. Go to **Network & Internet** > **Proxy**.
3. Under **Manual proxy setup**, enable **Use a proxy server**, and enter the SOCKS5 proxy IP address and port.
4. Click **Save**, and then restart Chrome.

This method will make Chrome automatically use the system proxy settings.

**Special note: Chrome cannot directly set the account and password, so the above steps are only valid for static IP whitelist mode. If you want to use Cliproxy traffic plan, you need to download the extension program for configuration.**
