WinHttpResetAutoProxy function

The WinHttpResetAutoProxy function resets the auto-proxy.

DWORD WinHttpResetAutoProxy(
  _In_ HINTERNET hSession,
  _In_ DWORD     dwFlags
);

Parameters

hSession [in]

A valid HINTERNET WinHTTP session handle returned by a previous call to the WinHttpOpen function.

dwFlags [in]

A set of flags that affects the reset operation.

The following flags are supported as defined in the Winhttp.h header file.
