I feel your pain! Had the same issue last week. Turns out, my *work profile* was forcing chrome proxy settings via Group Policy.
Check `chrome://policy/` like you mentioned—if you see anything under "ProxySettings," that’s the culprit.
If it’s work-related, you might need IT to loosen the leash. Otherwise, try a fresh Chrome profile? Sometimes extensions corrupt stuff silently.
