A proxy is a service that allows access to websites blocked in different countries, while hiding your own IP address. It is a kind of intermediary between the end server and the owner's computer. A VPN provides an encrypted connection to the network, which not only allows you to keep your privacy, hide your IP address, encrypt Internet traffic, but also bypasses firewalls.
All you need to know when using a web proxy is the address of the web site of the proxy server. A web proxy is like a browser built into a web page. Usually, it always has a bar for entering the URL of the web site you want to open. After entering the URL of the web proxy server address into the address bar of the browser, enter the address of the desired web site into the proxy URL and press "Enter".
Go through the "Control Panel" to the "Browser Properties" section. Open the "Connections" tab, and then by clicking on the "Network settings" button at the bottom, uncheck the "Proxy server" box. Also uncheck the "Auto-detection" checkbox under "Auto-configuration".
The easiest way is to try to open any site or application that requires an Internet connection. If the data download goes well, then the VPN is working properly. If there is a "No connection" error, then the VPN is not working properly for some reason.
In Windows 8 and later editions it is recommended to setup network proxy through Group Policy. To do this, run GPMC.msc (via "Run" or enter in the "Search"), then select the section with the users, from the list of parameters select "Internet Settings". Further settings are not different from the standard ones in Windows. You can set proxy, specify the start page, enter restrictions and so on.
