Old IE settings: * User Configuration\Policies\Windows Settings\Internet Explorer Maintenance\Connection/Proxy Settings * "Enable Proxy Settings" : Checked * "Address of proxy" : server.domain.local * "Port" : 8080 * "Use the same proxy server for all addresses" : Checked * "Exceptions" : Here we have a list of several internal or partner sites that should not be proxied. IE 11 Settings: * User Configuration\Preferences\Control Panel Settings\Internet Settings\Internet Explorer 10 Now, seeing as these are preferences, it's a little different. But, I've "checked off" the option "Use a proxy server for your LAN" as well as "Bypass proxy server for local addresses". Then I click on "Advanced" and setup all my proxy settings the way I would like them, including the proxy server name, port and exceptions list. When this new group policy gets applied to my Windows 8 PC, the only setting that gets applied is the "Use a proxy server for your LAN". It does not configure the name or port of the proxy server nor does it configure the exceptions list. If I go back to the GPMC, and edit the new GPO, the settings are all there. However, if I just view the settings from the main GPMC screen (without opening the GPO itself), I don't see all of those settings (again, only the one "Use a proxy server...") * Work arround: 1. On the tab Connections, click LAN settings. 2. Check to enable the Use a proxy server... option. 3. Click"Advanced... 4. Fill in Exceptions and click OK. 5. Press F5. 6. Fill in Address: and Port: en press F5. 7. Check Bypass proxy... and click OK. When you try to change the exceptions, you have to remake a new Internet Explorer 10 item under Control Panel Settings/Internet Settings.
