Check your PC first
Works
- Windows 8 and 8.1, 32-bit or 64-bit.
- Laptops, all-in-ones and tablets with an Intel or AMD processor.
- An administrator account, or its password. The app is set up for every user on the PC at once.
Won’t work
- Windows RT and RT 8.1, as on the Surface RT and Surface 2. They only run Windows Store apps, and Bebra.exe is a regular desktop program.
If you upgrade Windows
- From 8 to 8.1. Nothing to do.
- To 10 or 11. A “Windows has been updated” window appears, and its Reinstall the app button gets the PROXY working again.
Three steps to connect
Run Bebra.exe
Get the installer from the button above, open it, then confirm the Windows prompt about changes with Yes.
Leave setup running
For Windows 8 the installer fetches .NET Framework 4.6.1 from Microsoft, and for 8.1 it fetches version 4.8. If a suitable version is already there, this step is skipped. Otherwise keep the window open, since the installer itself puts this at 10 to 20 minutes.
Click a flag
When setup finishes, the Bebra PROXY window opens by itself. Pick any country tile. A new guest account has no subscription, so Buy Bebra VPN comes up first. Once you’ve subscribed or signed in to your own account, picking a country turns the PROXY on straight away.
Once it’s installed
Sometimes the installer ends by asking you to restart Windows so .NET Framework can finish. In that case the app won’t open on its own, and the installer will remind you to start it after the restart. You’ll find the shortcut on the desktop.
On first launch the app is already signed in as a guest. If you already have a subscription from the website or another device, go to Account → Sign out. On the sign-in screen, choose Sign in with Email with the address you paid with, or Sign in with code if Bebra PROXY is on your phone. The phone app gives you the code under Account → Sign in on another device.
Subscribe to Bebra PROXY
Your subscription covers every device on the account, so an older laptop doesn’t need a plan of its own.

Worth checking first
Do I have to update to 8.1 first?
No. Bebra PROXY installs on plain Windows 8 as well.
Can I install .NET Framework myself beforehand?
Yes. Windows 8 takes .NET Framework 4.6.1, and 8.1 takes 4.6.1 or later, all from Microsoft’s website. When the Bebra PROXY installer finds a suitable version, it skips that step and setup goes quicker.
How do I tell Windows 8 from Windows RT?
Look at System type in the System window, which you can reach through Control Panel → System and Security. If it mentions an ARM processor, it’s Windows RT, and Bebra PROXY won’t install there.
