What Is ZeroOmega (SwitchyOmega V3)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

ZeroOmega<\/strong> is a modern replacement for the once-popular SwitchyOmega extension. It’s designed to work with the latest browser standards, including Manifest V3<\/strong>, and allows users to create and manage multiple proxy profiles \u2014 switching between them manually, automatically, or via PAC scripts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Development of SwitchyOmega stopped years ago, and as browsers like Chrome moved to Manifest V3, the extension became incompatible and was eventually removed from the Chrome Web Store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ZeroOmega<\/strong> solves this by offering a fully compatible alternative that works in:
\u2013 Google Chrome
<\/strong> \u2013 Microsoft Edge
<\/strong> \u2013 Mozilla Firefox
<\/strong> \u2013 Opera<\/strong> and other Chromium-based browsers like Brave, Yandex Browser, Epic Privacy Browser, C\u1ed1c C\u1ed1c, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its interface and features closely match the original, but under the hood, it’s updated for modern browser requirements and continues to receive active maintenance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To install ZeroOmega, choose the appropriate version based on your browser. Most Chromium-based browsers support Chrome Web Store extensions, so you can use the same link as for Chrome. Firefox users should install it from Mozilla Add-ons. If the extension isn\u2019t available in your region, or you prefer to install it manually, the GitHub repository offers ZIP and CRX packages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pinning the ZeroOmega Icon to the Toolbar<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

After installation, the ZeroOmega icon may not be visible in the browser toolbar. To make it always accessible, follow these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Step<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n
\"Step<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
    \n
  1. Click the Extensions<\/strong> button (puzzle icon) in the top-right corner of Chrome.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Find Proxy SwitchyOmega 3 (ZeroOmega)<\/strong> in the list and click the pin icon<\/strong> to show it on the toolbar.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Once the icon appears, click it to open the quick access menu.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Click the Options<\/strong> button to open the main configuration page.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Quick Proxy Setup in ZeroOmega<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    If you’re using the default profile named proxy<\/strong>, here’s how to add your proxy server in just a few steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Make sure the proxy<\/strong> profile is selected in the left sidebar.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. In the Protocol<\/strong> dropdown, select your proxy type (e.g. HTTP, SOCKS5).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. In the Server<\/strong> field, enter the proxy IP address.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. In the Port<\/strong> field, enter the correct port number.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    5. (Optional) If your proxy requires authentication, click the lock icon<\/strong> to open the login popup:
      \u2003\u20035.1 Enter your Username<\/strong>
      \u2003\u20035.2 Enter your Password<\/strong>
      \u2003\u20035.3 Click Save changes<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
    6. Click the green Apply changes<\/strong> button to save the configuration.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
      \n
      \"ZeroOmega<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

      If your proxy server requires authentication, click the lock icon<\/strong> shown on the right side of the port field in the image above (label 5).
      This will open a login window where you can enter your credentials:<\/p>\n\n\n

      \n
      \"ZeroOmega<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

      That’s it \u2014 your proxy is now active and ready to use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      How to Check If Your IP Has Changed<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      After setting up a proxy in ZeroOmega, you can verify that your new IP address is active by visiting a simple test page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Just go to: https:\/\/proxycompass.com\/ip-address\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      This page will show your current IP address, country, and ISP.
      If the proxy is working correctly, the IP displayed there should match the one you configured in ZeroOmega.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Large Proxy Lists in ZeroOmega: Setup, Rotation, Export, and Automation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      Let\u2019s say you have a proxy list with many IPs from different countries \u2014 for example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      DE 185.101.20.107:1085\nUS 193.202.86.13:1085\nFR 194.99.24.47:1085\nRU 185.68.152.66:1085\nBR 185.61.216.64:1085\n\u2026<\/code><\/pre><\/div>\n\n\n\n
      All of them are SOCKS5 and authorized by your device\u2019s IP (no login\/password required). Below we\u2019ll walk through how to set them up efficiently in ZeroOmega and how to get the most out of the extension.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
      Add Each Proxy to Its Own Profile<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
      Let\u2019s start with the first proxy from our list \u2014 the one for Germany (185.101.20.107:1085). We\u2019ll create a separate profile for it in ZeroOmega.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
      Follow these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
      1.<\/strong> On the left sidebar, click + New profile\u2026<\/strong>
      2.<\/strong> In the popup window, enter a name for the new profile \u2014 for example, “proxy-de<\/strong>“
      3.<\/strong> Make sure Proxy Profile<\/strong> is selected
      4.<\/strong> Click the blue Create<\/strong> button<\/p>\n\n\n
      \n
      \"Creating<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
      5.<\/strong> In the new profile settings screen, select SOCKS5<\/strong> from the Protocol dropdown
      6.<\/strong> In the Server<\/strong> field, enter the IP address of your proxy.
      7.<\/strong> In the Port<\/strong> field, enter the corresponding port.
      8.<\/strong> Click the green Apply changes<\/strong> button<\/p>\n\n\n
      \n
      \"Configuring<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
      Repeat this process for each of your proxies, giving each one a clear and unique profile name (e.g. “proxy-us”<\/strong>, “proxy-fr”<\/strong>, “proxy-ru”<\/strong>, “proxy-br”<\/strong>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
      Switch Between Proxies Manually<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
      Once you’ve created separate profiles for each of your proxies, you can easily switch between them using the ZeroOmega icon in your browser toolbar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
      This manual switching method is useful when:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
        \n
      • you need to test multiple IPs or locations,<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • you want to rotate proxies manually during a session,<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • you work with accounts or tasks that require frequent country switching.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n
        \n
        \"Dropdown<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
        Click the extension icon to open a dropdown list of all your saved profiles. The currently active profile will be highlighted. To switch, simply click on another profile \u2014 the change will apply instantly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
        Creating Auto Switch Rules<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
        ZeroOmega allows you to automatically assign specific proxies based on the websites you visit. This is done using the Auto Switch<\/strong> profile, which activates different proxy profiles depending on the rules you define.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
        Note:<\/strong> The domains and proxy profiles shown in the screenshot are just examples. You can replace them with websites and proxies relevant to your own use case.<\/p>\n\n\n
        \n
        \"ZeroOmega<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
        The screenshot above illustrates a working Auto Switch configuration. Here’s how to set it up:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
          \n
        1. Select the Auto Switch profile<\/strong>
          On the left-hand menu, click on the auto switch<\/strong> entry (see label \u2460 on the screenshot). This opens the rule editor.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        2. Add matching rules<\/strong>
          In the \u201cSwitch rules<\/strong>\u201d section \u2461, use the dropdown to set the Condition Type<\/strong> to “Host wildcard<\/em>“. Then enter a domain in the Condition Details<\/strong> field (e.g., *.vk.com<\/em>) and assign the appropriate proxy profile (e.g., “proxy-ru<\/strong>“). Repeat this for other websites and countries:
          \n
            \n
          • *.craigslist.org<\/em> \u2192 “proxy-us<\/strong>“<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • *.spiegel.de<\/em> \u2192 “proxy-de<\/strong>“<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • *.vk.com<\/em> \u2192 “proxy-ru<\/strong>“<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • *.leboncoin.fr<\/em> \u2192 “proxy-fr<\/strong>“<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • *.mercadolivre.com.br<\/em> \u2192 “proxy-br<\/strong>“
            <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Set a fallback rule<\/strong>
            At the bottom \u2462, define a default action for all other sites. You can leave it as [Direct]<\/strong> or assign one of your proxy profiles.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Apply the changes<\/strong>
            Click the green Apply changes<\/strong> button \u2463 to save and activate your rules.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
            \n
            \"Browser<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
            \n
            Important:<\/strong> To make this work, you must also activate the auto switch<\/strong> profile in your browser toolbar by clicking the ZeroOmega icon and selecting it from the list.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
            Importing Your Config into Another Browser<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
            To move your ZeroOmega setup to another browser or computer, you need to install the ZeroOmega extension on the new browser first. After that, follow these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n
            \n
            \"ZeroOmega<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
              \n
            1. In your current browser, open the Import\/Export<\/strong> section (label \u2460 on the screenshot).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            2. Click Make backup<\/strong> (\u2461) to download a .bak<\/strong> file containing all your settings \u2014 including proxy profiles, switch rules, and UI preferences.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            3. In the new browser, go to Import\/Export<\/strong>, click Restore from file<\/strong> (\u2462), and select the previously saved .bak<\/strong> file.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            4. Press Apply changes<\/strong> to activate your settings.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
              You can also export your Auto Switch setup as a .pac<\/strong> file using the Export PAC<\/strong> button on the profile page. This creates a Proxy Auto-Config script for browser use. However, .pac<\/strong> files only contain switching logic and proxy addresses \u2014 they don\u2019t preserve profiles, authentication, or UI preferences. Also, browser behavior with .pac<\/strong> files may differ from ZeroOmega\u2019s internal logic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
              That\u2019s why we recommend using the .bak<\/strong> backup method for reliable and complete configuration transfer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
