How to set proxy Windows netsh?

How do I set a proxy for all users in IE?

I can do this from the control panel but this does not affect the proxy setting
For example.

C:Documents and SettingsMyuser>iexplore.exe -proxy: or a. C:Documents and SettingsMyuser>curl -socks5://localhost:9090. I want something similar to. C:Documents and SettingsAll users>iexplore.exe -proxy:127.1:port
Or
C:Documents and SettingsAll users>curl -socks5://localhost:9090. I use the following batch file to set up system-wide proxy and socks5socks: @ECHO OFF. SETLOCAL. SET PRPROXY=127.1:22888 SET PRSOCKS5=127.1:9090 SET "USERNAME=". FOR /f "delims=, tokens=1,2" %%i IN (C:Users%USERNAME%AppDataRoamingMicrosoftWindowsNetworkShortcutsproxy.htm) DO SET "PRPROXY=%%i" FOR /f "delims=, tokens=1,2" %%i IN (C:Users%USERNAME%AppDataRoamingMicrosoftWindowsNetworkShortcutssocks.htm) DO SET "PRSOCKS5=%%i" IEX ( "%PRPROXY%" /path "" ). The first line sets the proxy which will be used for every network context on your system. If no proxy was set, this would mean it'll go direct to the internet. The second line simply defines the proxy which it uses for every internet protocol it handles (TELNET, SFTP etc. On Windows 7 and above this should work. I suggest you run this before you do the curl command in order to define which proxy is used for what protocol.

How do I set proxy settings in WinHTTP?

I am developing a Win32 app.

I need to set proxy settings in WinHTTP API. In my code I create an instance of WinHttpRequest. I'm unsure how to set the proxy settings? Thanks. Have a look at the SetProxyProperties method (MSDN), it has the following comment: The request must include HTTP proxy settings and use the HTTPPROXY environment variable if the proxy settings are supplied as an application-defined string. So, according to this comment, you should set the HTTPPROXY environment variable (before calling SetProxyProperties) before calling WinHTTP's SetProxyProperties function.

How do I set a proxy in IE?

I'm not looking for Windows specific solutions (or I can't think of any). In Internet Explorer there's an option to change proxy settings, but they don't have any effect unless you actually start the Internet Explorer program using your proxy settings. Unfortunately it sounds like that's what you need to do, not sure if there is any way around this though.

Update. To actually change the proxy setting in Windows 7 click Start, then click Control Panel, then double-click Network and Internet. Click Connection Information and then click the connection you want to change. The "Proxy:" textbox under Connection is what you'll be changing.

If you are using Internet Explorer 11, this can be done from the following link. Internet Explorer Proxy Settings. It will also automatically update any proxies added. To change proxy in Internet Explorer 7: Go to "Help" and select "Internet Options". In the "General" tab, you will find an option called "Proxy settings". Change the setting from "Use automatic proxy configuration", to "Manual proxy configuration". Now you will have to enter the details of your proxy server.
