But after a few seconds, my proxy settings will be restored to direct connection. What is the problem?<\/p>\n<p>Answer: It seems that some program reverts your proxy settings. Follow this instruction to find what program changed your proxy settings.<\/p>\n<p>First, you need the program Process Monitor. Download it from here:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/download.sysinternals.com\/files\/ProcessMonitor.zip\"  target=\"_blank\"  target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" >https:\/\/download.sysinternals.com\/files\/ProcessMonitor.zip<\/a><\/p>\n<p>1) Run it. You will see this dialog. Click the &#8220;Filter&#8221; button.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-481\" src=\"https:\/\/free-proxy-list.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/process_monitor_1.png\" alt=\"Monitor Proxy Settings\" width=\"390\" height=\"290\" \/><\/p>\n<p>2) Add a filter rule. Show the entries whose path ends with &#8220;ProxyEnable&#8221;. Please type in the &#8220;ProxyEnable&#8221; by yourself. Then click &#8220;Add&#8221; and &#8220;OK&#8221; buttons.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-482\" src=\"https:\/\/free-proxy-list.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/process_monitor_5.png\" alt=\"Filter Proxy Settings\" \/><\/p>\n<p>3) Click the &#8220;Start&#8221; button to start monitoring your system.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-483\" src=\"https:\/\/free-proxy-list.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/process_monitor_3.png\" alt=\"Program Changed Proxy Settings\" width=\"390\" height=\"260\" \/><\/p>\n<p>4) Enable MyIPHide now. When MyIPHide says your proxy settings are changed by another program, click the &#8220;Start&#8221; button again to stop the monitor. Now see what program is shown there.<\/p>\n<p>In that screenshot, you can see <a href=\"http:\/\/www.eliteproxyswitcher.com\/\"  target=\"_blank\"  target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" >Elite Proxy Switcher<\/a> (EPS.exe) changed the proxy settings besides My IP Hide (MIH.exe).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Follow this instruction to find what program changed proxy settings on your computer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[14,4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-478","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-proxy-question","category-proxy-software"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>What Program Changed Proxy Settings?
