You Cannot Save Web Proxy Setting in Internet Explorer on Some Windows-Based Clients
This article was previously published under Q314645
Settings that you configure for Web Proxy in Internet Explorer may not be saved. When you restart the workstation, the newly saved configuration reverts back to the default settings.
This behavior occurs because Internet Explorer does not save settings on Windows 95-based, Windows 98-based, Windows 98 Second Edition-based, or Windows Millennium Edition-based computers. As a result, you acquire the settings that are configured for the default user account each time that you log on.
To work around this behavior, configure the default user's settings:
- Restart the computer.
- When you are prompted to log on, click Cancel.
- Click Start, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel.
- In Control Panel, click Internet Options.
- Click the Connections tab, and then click LAN Settings.
- Configure the proxy server settings as needed.
- Click OK, and then click OK.
- Restart your computer.

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
