    • Under Automatic Proxy setup.

    • Move the Automatically detect settings bar to ON.

    • Under Manual Proxy settings.

    • Move the Use a proxy server bar to OFF.

    If the issue persists even after disabling the proxy settings, check the proxy settings in Internet Explorer. Follow the steps to disable proxy.

    • Click the Connections tab, and then click LAN settings.

    Hi Matt,

    Let's make sure that the Proxy server settings are disabled or turned off as shown in the photo below. Just navigate to
    Settings > Network & Internet > Proxy. Toggle off Automatically detect settings under
    Automatic proxy setup, and Use a proxy server under
    Manual proxy setup.

    Proxy server

    • For quite some time after a Microsoft Update I have had to manually turn off the proxy server each day in order to get on the internet. The "Save" button is greyed out, so unable to save the turned off setting. I have spoken to techs about this and they
      ran some tests, but to no avail. Any suggestions? It's a pain to have to redo this each day when I restart my laptop.
