Why am I having proxy problems?

In Chrome on Windows 10 and Android devices it works fine but it has been giving me trouble when using Windows 10 browser. What can I do to resolve this? You are using a web proxy server which is causing the request to fail. These are the steps for resolving it: Open and find and delete the following: Now you will be able to surf using the proxy settings. On Windows, Chrome automatically detects it for you.

When you use a browser that doesn't support proxies, such as Internet Explorer or Firefox, you'll have to manually set them by accessing Network>Settings>Connections>LAN Settings>Proxies>Autodetect>Proxies>Manage Proxies>Options>. On MacOS or Linux you can use the network manager to set it. You will need to add the IP of the computer to the proxy and set it with HTTP or SOCKS protocols. If you set it for SOCKS5, the address will end in socks5://

After configuring the proxy you need to refresh your browser in order to use the new proxy settings. I have followed the above steps and I keep getting Firefox cannot establish a connection to the proxy server even if I had used Firefox successfully in the past. The network icon shows 'connected' to the proxy server yet firefox still complains. What can I do to fix it?

How do I disable proxy in Chrome?

I try with different browsers.

There are two (probable) reasons for this behavior: You are using Windows 7, which uses a network proxy by default. You are using multiple proxy servers as a part of the global proxy settings. When you switch your browser to Chrome, it is actually creating its own proxy settings and bypassing the system proxy settings. If you use the same proxy on multiple machines and want to have Chrome use the same settings regardless of the machine it is installed on, you can simply edit your hosts file to use the same proxy server everywhere. (This is how I handle my own problems). If you want to be able to access the internet one computer while on another one, you would need to set it up as an automatic proxy.
