IE Proxy setting selection order/priority
Sorry if this is in the wrong forum, I couldn't really find one applicable. In Internet Explorer we can choose between auto detect, auto script, and manual proxy settings. If more than one of these is configured, or all of them configured, in which order/priority are they processed? I thought I had seen an article once that described the process, but I can't find it again now. Can anyone shed some light? Thanks

Hi, Thanks for posting in Microsoft TechNet Forum. Based on my research, if you check both the "Automatically Detect Settings" and "Automatic Configuration Script" boxes, auto-detection takes precedence, regarding auto-configuration and manual proxy server, the automatic configurations will take precedence over manual configuration. For more information, please kindly refer to the following article: Take the Burden Off Users with Automatic Configuration Hope it helps. Alex Zhao TechNet Subscriber Support in forum.
