Had this issue forever! For how to off proxy *properly*, don’t forget:
- Some apps (like Spotify) have their own proxy settings. Check those!
- Reset Chrome flags (chrome://flags > Reset all).
- Try a different browser (Firefox) to see if it’s Chrome-specific.
If all else fails, backup and reinstall Windows. Extreme but works.

Yo, thanks for all the tips! 🙌
Tried the `ipconfig /flushdns` and resetting network settings—most sites work now, but still getting timeouts on a few.
Weird thing: Chrome *still* shows “proxy” in the error message. Checked flags and extensions, nada. Might just switch to Firefox lol.
Appreciate the help tho! Gonna try that ProxyCap tool next.
