How Do I Turn Off a Proxy Server? – Need Help Disabling It! or How Do I Turn Off a Proxy Server? Can'

If you’ve tried everything and the proxy WON’T DIE, maybe it’s a registry thing. Backup first, then:

1. Open regedit
2. Go to `HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings`
3. Delete the `ProxyServer` and `ProxyEnable` keys.

Restart after. Risky, but effective.

For Mac, try `sudo networksetup -setwebproxy "Wi-Fi" "" ""` in Terminal.
