Hello Everyone

Does someone know what the following registry key is exactly used for.

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings,
"MigrateProxy"=dword:00000001

Thanks

I believe it allows/disallows changes to the proxy settings remotely - from
the user-defined settings.

According to my tests, MigrateProxy is used to force one time detection of proxysetting.

- If 'Automatically detect settings' is disabled and migrateProxy is set to 0 setting detection will occur at first internet connection and value of Key MigrateProxy will be changed to 1.

- If 'Automatically detect settings' is enabled. The key MigrateProxy has no effect.
