Can anyone advise me how to stop the 'Proxy settings per user' in the Registry under 'Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings' from returning to Zero everytime I reboot the PC when I want it to stay set at 1. I am not an expert on PC but can sort things out if I'm given clear instructions. I am running the latest up to date version of Windows 10. Many thanks in advance.

After enabling the boot trace and rebooting, don't open ProcMon immediately. Instead, wait until ProxySettingPerUser reverts to 0. Then, open ProcMon and save the boot trace.

Process Monitor
The file 'Bootlog.pml' was not closed cleanly during capture and is corrupt.
OK

If turning off iCloud doesn't help, a fresh trace is needed.

2024-10-02T13:19:05+00:00 Hi Ramesh back again.
Today I set the ProxyUser to 1, I then ran Procman to view the boot, I restarted the PC and once running I checked the ProxUser and it was still at 1, However, I noticed in the background iCloud booting up and as soon as this had happend I checked the PU and it had reverted to zero. I have put the latest Procman log into one drive, for some reason there was only one log this time so I do not know if I did something wrong but if so I don't know what. I now intend to stop iCloud running on the PC and see what happens then but I use iCloud for my phones etc. so I don't know what if anything you can suggest about this if it does turne out to be iCloud causing the problem. I will let you know the outcome shortly, Many thanks....
