    2. In the Script address field, enter the URL of the PAC file.

    3. Click Save.

  • To set the proxy at the global level, run the following command on the computer:

    C:\Windows\system32>netsh winhttp set proxy httproxy.hostname.com:8080

    The following message appears:

    Current WinHTTP proxy settings:
