How to fix "unable to connect to proxy server" error

[Baaketballislife]

I've been searching for a month on how to fix the unable to connect to proxy server thing and its supposed to be an easy solution, right? Well it won't let me click ok. I've been trying everyday and nothing has been working. I need my computer for math class and it would be great if anyone could possibly help, thanks

Follow hk5630's solution. Safe mode is the trick.

I unchecked the use proxy server under Lan settings AFTER I ran malwarebytes > found a ton of malwarebytes but had to go back and fix the setting manually.

Go to search. Type msconfig. Click. Click on boot tab. Check on safe mode. Restart. When restarted, click on settings. Click on advance settings. Go to change proxy. Then LAN. Erase check mark. Apply. Okay. Back to search. Type msconfig. Restart.

I couldn't thank you enough! I was at a loss, every website was suggesting the same - to just open advanced options and uncheck the Proxy setting, nobody made a mention of what happens when it is not checked. I also tried your procedure by accsing safe mode pressing F8 upon boot, but that didn't work. The only thing that worked was your solution.

Thank you!

Can someone explain which "settings" to click on when restarted???
