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.

In the screenshot, I see the value data of "ProxySettingsPerUser" is set to 1, not 0.

If you're using Windows 10 Pro or higher, you can configure the setting using the local group policy editor.
Launch "gpedit.msc" and go to the following branch:
Computer Configuration → Administrative Templates → Windows Components → Internet Explorer.Double-click "Make proxy settings per-machine (rather than per-user)" and configure it accordingly.
