ERR_PROXY_CONNECTION_FAILED / The proxy server is not responding

Solved
Hello,

For the past few days, I have been unable to connect to the internet with my laptop, whether using Chrome, Firefox, or Internet Explorer; I keep getting the same error response regarding the proxy.

I first uninstalled Firefox and then tried to install Chromium instead of Chrome, but that didn't change anything. By modifying Chrome's proxy settings, I was able to connect temporarily and update Java before it became stuck again. I ran an Avast scan without success either.

Chromium message: ERR_PROXY_CONNECTION_FAILED
Internet Explorer message: the proxy server is not responding, check the proxy settings 127.0.0.1:49344
Firefox uninstalled.

If anyone has any idea for a cleanup that I could perform or the origin of the problem, I am interested!!

Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

Annabelle

      It doesn't seem to yield much... I just started a Malwarebytes scan and I'm waiting for the analysis to finish, it seems to have detected something.

        look at this message to remove the proxies: https://forums.commentcamarche.net/forum/affich-31306339-err-proxy-connection-failed-le-serveur-proxy-ne-repond-pas#2

        then:

        Follow this tutorial: https://www.malekal.com/tutoriel-farbar-recovery-scan-tool-frst/
        This will generate two FRST reports.
        Send these two reports as explained on the site http://pjjoint.malekal.com and provide the three pjjoint links for these reports so they can be reviewed.
