How to use proxy when opening portable firefox?

How to use proxy when opening portable firefox?

for example..

I will open the portable firefox and when it will open the portable firefox it will ask for authentication for the proxies username and password.

this maybe possible if i will set it everytime it will open the homepage of a certain website example abc.com as the homepage and it will request or requires a proxy username and password before it will work.

Connection

You can set the connection for Firefox Portable the same was as local Firefox. By default it uses the Windows system settings. If you want to manually specify something else within Firefox, you can. Select menu (the 3 line hamburger menu button on the right) and then Options. Click Advanced and select the Network tab. Then click Settings under the Connection heading.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!

Proxy

If you have setup a proxy, it will work just like local Firefox does. If you have not, you'll need to get assistance elsewhere setting one up.
