## Description

**ProxyControl** is a Chrome extension designed to simplify managing your browser's proxy settings. It allows quick configuration of HTTP(S) proxies directly within your browser, making it easy to switch proxy settings on the fly without complicated processes.

Please note, ProxyControl only supports HTTP(S) proxy protocols. For other proxy types like SOCKS5, specialized software such as Proxifier is recommended. This tool streamlines proxy usage for users seeking an efficient way to handle HTTP(S) proxies without external programs.
