Proxinject, developed by PragmaTwice, is a lightweight Windows utility designed to redirect network traffic from chosen applications through a SOCKS5 proxy without altering global system settings. Its core purpose is to make only selected processes “proxy-able,” allowing users to isolate VPN or proxy connections for specific programs while leaving others on the direct line. Typical use cases include forcing a single browser, game launcher, or telemetry service through an anonymity tunnel, testing geo-restricted content from a single client, or separating corporate traffic from personal traffic on the same machine. Because injection happens at runtime, no administrative changes to Windows routing tables or per-app proxy dialogs are required. The tool currently stands at version 0.5.0-pre and is part of a rapid release cycle that has already produced seven public builds, each refining stability, adding command-line switches, and widening compatibility with both 32- and 64-bit processes. The software belongs to the Network Tools / Proxy category and is distributed as a portable executable that can be scripted through PowerShell or batch files for unattended deployment. Although still officially a pre-release, the codebase is actively maintained on GitHub, with issues and feature requests tracked publicly. Proxinject is available for free on get.nero.com, where downloads are served through trusted Windows package sources such as winget, ensuring that every fetch retrieves the newest build and enabling batch installation alongside other applications.
