Managing [**proxy settings**](https://www.okeyproxy.com/proxy/how-to-delete-proxy-settings-all-devices/) on your devices can be crucial for maintaining optimal internet connectivity and privacy. Sometimes, these settings can cause connectivity issues or unwanted privacy risks. Here’s a guide on how to delete proxy settings across different devices.

#### Windows

To remove proxy settings on a Windows PC, follow these steps:

1.  **Open Settings**: Click on the Start menu and select the gear icon to open Windows Settings.
    
2.  **Network & Internet**: Navigate to the "Network & Internet" section.
    
3.  **Proxy**: Click on "Proxy" in the left sidebar.
    
4.  **Disable Settings**: Under "Automatic proxy setup," turn off "Automatically detect settings" and "Use setup script." Under "Manual proxy setup," ensure "Use a proxy server" is turned off.
    

This will ensure that your Windows PC no longer uses any proxy settings, which can sometimes interfere with internet access.

#### macOS

For macOS users, the process is slightly different:

1.  **System Preferences**: Click on the Apple logo in the top-left corner and select "System Preferences."
    
2.  **Network**: Open the "Network" settings.
    
3.  **Advanced Settings**: Select your active network connection and click "Advanced."
    
4.  **Proxies Tab**: Navigate to the "Proxies" tab and uncheck all protocols under "Select a protocol to configure."
    

By doing this, your Mac will stop using any proxy settings that might have been configured previously.

#### Android

On Android devices, proxy settings are typically set per Wi-Fi network:

1.  **Settings App**: Open the Settings app and go to "Network & Internet."
    
2.  **Wi-Fi**: Tap on "Wi-Fi" and select your connected network.
    
3.  **Modify Network**: Tap "Advanced" or "Modify network" and scroll to "Proxy settings."
    
4.  **None**: Change the proxy option to "None."
    

This will remove any proxy settings associated with that specific Wi-Fi network.

#### iOS

For iOS devices, you can adjust proxy settings as follows:

1.  **Settings App**: Open the Settings app and go to "Wi-Fi."
    
2.  **Network Info**: Tap the "i" icon next to your connected Wi-Fi network.
    
3.  **HTTP Proxy**: Scroll down to "HTTP Proxy" and select "Off."
    

This ensures that your iPhone or iPad is not using a proxy server for internet connections.
