How to Disconnect from Proxy Server – Quick Fix or Full Guide? or Stuck Behind a Proxy? How to Discon

Bro, I feel you. Had this issue last week.

For Windows, sometimes the proxy settings get stuck in the registry.

You can try editing it via `regedit` (careful tho!). Navigate to `HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings` and set `ProxyEnable` to 0.

But yeah, backup first. Registry tweaks can be risky.
