How Do I Configure Chrome Browser Proxy Settings for Better Privacy? or Why Can't I Change My Chrome

Admin locks are likely the culprit, especially on Win 10. Run Chrome as admin (right-click > Run as administrator) and see if that unlocks the chrome browser proxy settings.

If not, check:
1. Registry edits (careful tho)—look for *ProxySettingsPerUser* key.
2. Reset Chrome flags (*chrome://flags/* > reset all).

Worst case, switch to a browser like Brave—it’s Chromium-based but sometimes ignores system policies.
