    Windows couldnt automatically detect proxy settings


    When trying to connect to router it does connect but internet doesnt work. Running troubleshoot says that windows couldnt automatically detect proxy settings. Ive tried resettting winsock and ipv4 in command prompt and problem still persist. Ive also checked my drivers and everything is up to date. Also sharing phones internet to pc works just fine.

    :)

    Windows could not automatically detect this networks proxy settings

    Hi,

    There are various reasons why you're getting such error message. Slow internet connections or network issues are possible causes of it. Kindly provide us the following details so we can isolate your concern:

    • How did you get this error message?
    • Are you connected to the internet using wireless or wired connection?
    • Have you tried other devices to check if the same issue occurred?

    Since you have followed all the steps in the article provided above, let's check if your computer's Network proxy settings are configured correctly by following these steps:

    • Type Proxy in the search box on the taskbar, and then click on
      Network proxy settings.
    • Under Automatic Proxy setup, set Automatically detect settings bar to ON.
    • Under Manual Proxy settings, set Use a proxy server bar to OFF.
    • Click on Save.

    Let us know if it works.

    Not able to set automatically detect proxy in LAN settings


    In LAN settings in internet options, I can't change any of the options, if i select the checkbox to automatically detect the proxy settings, clicking the OK button does nothing. In Proxy settings inside windows settings I can toggle "Automatically detect settings" but it reverts as soon as I back out. So proxy settings aren't saved.

    I have scanned my PC using malwarebytes; this isn't a virus. I've tried a network reset to no avail. How should I enable automatic proxy detection settings (or any proxy settings), can I edit settings in the registry manually?

    Thanks in advance.
