Hi,

If you want to use your default credentials with your proxy, you can perform the following actions:

1.Find devenv.exe.config (the devenv.exe configuration file) in: %ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\community\Common7\IDE.

2.In the configuration file, find the <system.net> block, and then add this code:

<defaultProxy enabled="true" useDefaultCredentials="true">

    <proxy bypassonlocal="True" proxyaddress=" HYPERLINK "http://<yourproxy:port#>" http://<yourproxy:port#>"/>

</defaultProxy>

You must insert the correct proxy address for your network in proxyaddress="<http://<yourproxy:port#>.
