Windows 10: Turn Off Windows Proxy

Windows 10 Home Edition.Computer is up-to-date.Simply put, I want the proxy settings permanently turned off and I don't ever want it on again.The proxy interferes with almost every program and website that I use or visit on my computer.I have gone as far as disabling proxy settings in the Registry Editor but the proxy continues to turn on. I am computer savvy with 15+ years of experience and this proxy mess is new to me.I have tried every "Proxy Fix" that I could find on the internet so please skip the basic troubleshooting that EVERYONE else has posted.Why does the proxy automatically turn on

:)

 

Can't turn off Proxy Settings

I am running Windows 10 Home Edition. My ISP provider has suggested I turn off Proxy Server Settings. I have done that, but they always turn themselves back on without my knowledge. There is no place to save the settings, even when set manually. Is there some where to turn off my proxy server and have them stay off?

Thanks,
dino
