2. &#x20;**Extract the Contents**

**Right-click** the downloaded `.zip` file.\
**Select** "Extract All..." from the menu.\
**Choose** a location to extract the files, and then click **Extract**. This will create a folder containing all the necessary files (e.g., `start_proxy.bat`, `anon.exe`, and other files).

Find the file named `start_proxy.bat` in the folder.

4. &#x20;**Run `start_proxy.bat`**

**Double-click** the `start_proxy.bat` file to start the proxy setup process.\
If prompted by **Windows Defender SmartScreen**, click **More info** and then select **Run anyway** to proceed.\

A Command Prompt window will open and begin the process of configuring and starting the proxy.
