Proxy - use automatic configuration script keeps unchecking

I have just installed windows and I'm trying to set a remote access address to my university's library via proxy settings.

I'm doing it trough (as it was working for me previously):

Internet options > connections > LAN settings:

Uncheck "Automatically detect settings"

Check "use automatic configuration script" and input the address.

press "OK"

However, these settings are not saved. When I go again into LAN settings the "use automatic configuration script" is unchecked.

Can anyone suggest a solution?

    Hi, BoriShHD.

    I am Ivan, I will help you with this.

    You can apply via regedit if you have difficulty activating the option.

    1. Press win+r and put Regedit and press okay.
    2. Then follow the directories to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings.
    3. These are options to add the configuration as you wish:

    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings]

    "AutoDetect"=1

    "AutoConfigURL"="URL"

    "ProxyEnable"=1

    "ProxyServer"="Proxy:Port"

    "ProxyOverride"="List"

    If the key is not in the registration list, you will add it in Dword (32-bit)
