When using Windows 10, sometimes we need to set up a proxy server to protect our network security or access some blocked websites. However, after setting up a proxy server, some users find that they can't save the settings, resulting in the need to re-enter them every time they re-open the settings page. How to solve this problem? I will answer you in detail below.
Win10 proxy server can't be saved
First of all, we need to make sure that we have administrator privileges to change proxy server settings. In Windows 10, normal users can't change proxy server settings, so we need to use an administrator account to do so.
Secondly, we need to check whether the system has some third-party software or security protection software interfering with the proxy server settings. Sometimes some antivirus software or firewall will restrict the access or operation of the proxy server. Therefore, we need to disable these programs or allow proxy server settings and operations in their settings.
Finally, we can try to modify the system registry to solve this problem. First, press Win+R to open the Run window, type regedit and press Enter to open the Registry Editor. Then expand HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionInternet Setting path, find the name of the two registry keys ProxyEnable and ProxyServer, right-click on the value of the two keys, respectively, and select Modify! and change the value to 1 and your proxy server address and port, then click OK to save the changes.
