Detect group policy blocking proxy change #39

Closed parvit closed 1 year ago

parvit commented 1 year ago

@mfoxworthy Testing with local Domain setup did not trigger the issue, it has to be some particular group policy that stop the internal domain from letting change the proxy settings.

parvit commented 1 year ago

Reproduced the issue with local domain server setup by forcing the registry settings of the proxy to remain disabled.

The software can add the registry settings locally but they're ignored by the system, this results in the proxy ui and the browsers to remain without proxy.

The situation can be detected however, i'll make a change for this to emit a log if the scenario is detected.

The tray icon will now monitor if the proxy is working as intended when starting the client connection, if an issue is detected it will notify an error and terminate the run.
