Windows 10: Proxy Server Error

All of a sudden (no changes or updates) I am getting the following proxy server error on my desktop computer. I used to fix error by doing a shutdown but now that is not working.

Proxy Server?

When I was in high school, I used this website. It is a website that lists working proxies, updated daily. If you choose the right ones, you can actually successfully watch youtube videos through the proxy!

 

The proxy server isn’t responding

Hello All!

From the last 2 days, I'm facing a peculiar problem of not getting connected to internet.

Tried with IE, Edge, Chrome but none seems to work.

This is the error with IE

The proxy server isn’t responding

• Check your proxy settings 127.0.0.1:8080.
  
  Go to Tools > Internet Options > Connections. If you are on a LAN, click “LAN settings”.
• Make sure your firewall settings aren’t blocking your web access.
• Ask your system administrator for help.

This is the error with M. Edge:

Can’t connect to the proxy server
Try this

• Make sure firewall settings aren’t blocking your web access
• Ask your system administrator for help

And with Chrome:

Unable to connect to the proxy server
ERR_PROXY_CONNECTION_FAILED

A proxy server is a server that acts as an intermediary between your computer and other servers. Right now, your system is configured to use a proxy, but Google Chrome can't connect to it.

If you use a proxy server...
Check your proxy settings or contact your network administrator to make sure the proxy server is working. If you don't believe you should be using a proxy server: Go to the Chrome menu > Settings > +
Show advanced settings > Change proxy settings... > LAN Settings and deselect "Use a proxy server for your LAN".

What to do?

Tried all the resources listed on the web.

Can someone help me to fix this issue?

Thanks in advance.

Srinik
