The pencil on a profile's row, or New profile, opens the profile window. Its tabs follow AdsPower's Edit Browser Profile: Overview, Proxy, Fingerprint, Preferences, Account and Advanced. The panel on the right, What it will claim, shows what the profile will tell sites, live.
Every setting has a ? beside its name that opens its part of this page, and a short explanation when you rest the pointer on its name.
The short version: name it, give it a proxy, press Save. SablePower picks a real device and keeps everything consistent with it and with the proxy's country. Change the rest only when you know why.
Overview#
Name#
What you see in the list. Use something you will recognise, like the account's handle. A name is not required: leave it empty and the list shows the profile by its number (its custom number when it has one), in grey.
Icon#
An emoji or a small picture beside the name in the list, so you can tell profiles apart at a glance. Pick one of the emojis, type any other, or press Upload a picture…: SablePower makes it 64 by 64 pixels (PNG, JPEG, WebP, GIF or BMP; never SVG). Remove takes it away. Only your team sees it; no site ever does. See Profile icons.
Project#
Which project the profile lives in; AdsPower calls it a group. Changing it on a saved profile moves the profile, as Move to… does. In a team, everyone with that project sees it.
Tags#
Words to sort and filter by, separated by commas.
Stage#
Where the account is: new, warming, ready, working, paused, limited, banned, or your own word. The list filters by it.
Custom number#
Your own number or code, like 17 or DE-04. Shown in the list, found by search, the same for everyone in the team.
Platforms#
Which accounts the profile is for. Click to pick, or type another and press Enter. Shown as badges in the list.
App windows#
One line per platform: the address it opens as an app window, and Open to open it now. A known platform shows its address greyed out; leave it empty to keep it, or type another. A platform you named yourself needs an address, starting with https://. The addresses are kept on the profile when you press Save.
Notes#
Anything about the account. Notes are readable by the team server, so keep passwords in Logins instead.
Proxy#
Pick or add the proxy#
From the sheet lists your proxies with how many profiles use each; New proxy takes a pasted line, which becomes a row of the proxy sheet when you save. Check proxy shows where it comes out. Types: http, https, socks5 and WireGuard. Everything about proxies is in Proxies.
Open without a proxy#
A profile can be saved without a proxy, and it does not open until it has one: a team profile always goes out through a proxy, never through the connection of the computer that opens it (A profile without a proxy). A profile kept on this computer from before that had none is given a team proxy when it is moved to the team (Move to the team).
Fingerprint#
A SablePower profile is a measured real computer, not a set of loose settings. The system, user agent, fonts, screen, graphics card, audio and touch all come from that one device, so they always agree with each other. The settings below change single parts where that stays believable; choices that would describe a computer nobody owns are not offered.
In a team, the fingerprint settings need the right Change persona and fingerprint. A team profile keeps the device it was made with unless it is changed on purpose under Who opens this profile, and the choices called Real (this computer's own value) are off for team profiles: a team profile opens on different computers, and "this computer" would change with whoever opens it.
Operating system and version#
Press Windows (11, 10), macOS (15.2, 15.1, 14.7) or Android (16), then choose the Version. SablePower picks a real device of that system and version, weighted by how common it is. Only versions with a measured device are offered; more appear as real computers are added. A new profile starts on your computer's own system. Choosing another system picks a new device and resets the screen and graphics card.
- Match your computer. A Windows device on a Mac, or the other way round, gives itself away through the computer's speech voices. The window warns you.
- Android is one measured phone for now, so every Android profile is that phone; fonts, emoji and voices still come from your computer. The window says so.
- Linux and iOS are shown but say why they cannot be chosen, with Keep Windows (or macOS) beside it. Linux: there is no browser build or measured device for it. iOS: every iPhone browser is Apple's own engine, and a Chrome claiming iOS is recognised at once.
Who opens this profile#
Team profiles only. The people the profile's project is given to (or, for a project given to nobody, the owner and admins), with the system of each one's computer as their SablePower reports it. A device should be the system of the computer it opens on: the browser takes its speech voices from the real computer, and a Mac profile on Windows looks like two computers at once.
- A warning names who opens it on another system: Anna opens this on Windows 11; this profile is a macOS 15.
- Use a Windows 11 device picks a real device of that system. On a saved profile the button is Change the device to Windows 11, and asks once more: sites that know the account will see another computer (more).
- Use Anna's computer as the device asks Anna's SablePower to capture her computer; she allows it on her side (how).
- A new profile starts on the system most of its people use, and says so.
Shown to whoever may choose devices. Owners and admins open every profile and are listed apart unless the project is given to nobody. See The device and the computer it opens on.
Browser version#
Which build of the browser runs the profile. Newest: Chrome 155, the default, follows SablePower: when SablePower moves to a newer browser, the profile moves too. Old: Chrome 153 is there for a site that needs that version; the window warns that it misses security and detection fixes. A version not on your computer yet says not downloaded, and Download Chrome 153 fetches it once.
The profile always claims the version it really runs: sites compare the claimed version with the browser's features. Going back to an older version on a profile a newer one has opened is refused, because the browser would throw away its data and log the accounts out. Android needs Newest.
Device#
The real computer the profile presents itself as, from SablePower's catalogue of measured machines (with how common each is), your team's own, or ones captured on this computer. The list shows the devices of the chosen system and version.
User agent#
Shown, not typed: it is built from the device and the browser version, so it can never disagree with them. A user agent typed by hand that disagrees with the fonts, graphics card and screen describes a computer nobody owns.
WebRTC#
Through the proxy only (the default): WebRTC shows sites the proxy's address and nothing else. Leaks nothing.
Real: sites can read this computer's own address past the proxy, and every Real profile on this computer shares it. The window warns about it. Only for a profile without a proxy or for testing.
Time zone#
Based on IP (the default): taken from where the proxy comes out, when the profile opens, so it always matches the address. Custom: a zone you choose, for example when location services cannot place the proxy (see). Real: this computer's zone, read when the profile opens; warned, because with a proxy in another country the zone and the address disagree.
Location#
Based on IP follows the proxy's country and city; Custom takes a latitude and longitude, like 52.52, 13.405. When a site asks for the location: Ask (the default, as a normal Chrome), Allow (warned: a normal Chrome allows every site only under company rules), or Block (sites see "denied", like a person who refused).
Language#
Based on IP: the languages a Chrome installed in the proxy's country sends. Custom: your own list, or a ready made set. This is what sites read as the browser's languages.
Display language#
The language of the browser itself: its menus, and how dates and numbers are written. Match language takes the first of the languages above.
Screen resolution#
As the device, Custom (sizes this system really reports; impossible ones are refused), or Random, which picks one real size once and then keeps it: a new size at every launch would be a new monitor every day.
Fonts#
The device's own list. A hand picked list is not offered: it would be rarer than any real computer's, and fonts this computer lacks cannot be drawn anyway.
Canvas#
Noise (the default) gives each profile its own canvas image, so profiles on one computer cannot be linked by it. Checkers such as Pixelscan can see that it is noised. Real is exactly what this computer draws: no checker sees masking, but every Real profile on this computer shows the same canvas. Real suits one account per computer. Do not switch an account that is already trusted: its fingerprint changes.
WebGL image#
Follows Canvas: noised with it, real with it. One switch drives both.
WebGL metadata (graphics card)#
The graphics card the profile reports, always a whole real card of the same system with the values it was measured with. Choose one, or Random, which picks a card once and keeps it. "This computer's card" is not offered: a Windows device with a Mac's graphics card contradicts itself.
WebGPU#
Follows the graphics card above, so the two can never disagree.
AudioContext#
Noise (the default) or Real, as for Canvas.
Media devices#
As the device: the device's number of microphones, cameras and speakers, with ids of the profile's own (most devices carry no list, and then this computer's count shows). Real: this computer's. Custom: at most how many Microphones, Cameras and Speakers; the browser can hide devices this computer has, never add one it lacks.
ClientRects#
The exact sizes of page elements. Noise (the default) or Real.
Speech voices#
As the device where the device carries its list, or Real. The voices are why a device should match your computer's system.
CPU cores#
As the device, a number from the list, or the This computer button, which fills in this computer's count.
Memory, GB#
As the device, a size from the list, or This computer where the window can read it.
Do Not Track#
Default, off as in a normal Chrome, or On.
Battery#
Always plugged in and full, like a desktop. Not a setting.
Not offered, and why#
- Device name and MAC address: the browser gives pages no way to read either, so there is nothing to hide.
- TLS cipher choices: changing them makes the connection itself unlike any Chrome, which is a fingerprint of its own.
- Flash: Chrome removed it in 2021.
- A typed user agent and a hand picked font list: see above.
- Firefox as the browser: there is no Firefox engine.
- A new fingerprint at every launch: a new computer at every launch is what a warmed account must never show.
Preferences#
Open on start#
Pages the profile opens with, one per line. After SablePower's own start page.
Reopen last tabs#
On by default: the profile opens the tabs it had when it closed, and the start pages open on the first launch only. Off: every launch starts fresh with the start pages.
Images#
Load or Block. Blocking saves proxy traffic; a site can still be allowed by hand in the browser.
Clear on start#
What to remove before the browser starts: cache, cookies, history, local storage, IndexedDB, extension data. Clearing cookies or storage signs the accounts out, and the window warns about it.
In a team, these need only the right to change the profile's details.
Account#
Logins#
The account's logins kept with the profile, instead of in a spreadsheet: Name, Site, Username, Password and Two-factor seed. With a seed saved, the current code is shown live with a copy button. Encrypted with the team key. Save the profile first; a login is stored against it.
Cookies#
Import or export cookies… reads the profile's cookies as JSON, or writes cookies in, the same as Cookies… in the list. A new profile has to be saved first.
Advanced#
In a team, these need the right Change persona and fingerprint.
Launch arguments#
Extra browser switches, one per line. Only a short list of display switches is accepted: window size and position (--window-size, --window-position), start maximised or full screen, mute audio, hide notifications and crash bubbles, block images (--blink-settings=imagesEnabled=false), turn off Translate or casting (--disable-features=Translate,MediaRouter), and turn off the GPU. Anything else is refused, because the proxy, the language, the fingerprint, the profile folder and the debugging port are all set from the profile's own settings, and a switch that changed one of them would undo what keeps the profile apart.
Hardware acceleration#
On (the default) or Off. Off draws pages without the graphics card, and WebGL and WebGPU then answer like a computer with no graphics driver; the window warns about it. Only to work around a display problem.
Port scan protection and allowed ports#
Always on: sites cannot reach this computer or its network through the profile, and an open port looks closed to them. The box below takes allowed ports, like 8080, 9222: ports on this computer the profile may reach, for a local tool of your own (warned). SablePower's own API ports are always refused.
Domain lists#
For a profile on this computer: lists of sites it may not open, or with @allow-only the only ones it may. Lists are edited in Settings. In a team the owner sets them for people instead (Sites).
New fingerprint#
Gives the profile new canvas, audio and element noise. Everything a site has tied to the old one stops matching, so for a trusted account this is a loss, not a refresh. Do it for a burned profile, or before the first login. It asks twice.
Reset to the device#
Reset all to the device puts every single setting back to what the device has.
What it will claim#
The panel beside the settings shows, live, what the profile will tell sites: platform, user agent, Chrome version, screen, graphics card, CPU and memory, time zone, languages, fonts, noise, WebRTC, location. It checks the whole: Consistent means nothing contradicts anything else. While it describes a computer that cannot exist, Save stays off and the panel says why.
After opening, the profile's start page shows the same under Fingerprint information, as the page itself reads it, with a green mark where it matches.
