Create Your First Browser Profile

A browser profile is the basic unit of account isolation. Each profile stores its own cookies, cache, login sessions, and browser fingerprint. When using ZYBrowser for the first time, create a basic profile and confirm that you can save and launch it before adding proxies or custom fingerprint settings. For all available fields and submission options, see Create and Edit a Browser Profile.

Create a Browser Profile

  1. Open Browser Profiles and click New Profile.
  2. Under Basic Information, enter a recognizable profile name, such as Test Profile-01.
  3. Select a browser engine and operating system.
  4. If you need a proxy, select its protocol under Proxy Settings and enter the host, port, and other required details. Otherwise, keep the default settings.
  5. Review the settings and click Save.
