IE 10 proxy settings group policy not being applied

Same as this issue: http://www.edugeek.net/forums/windows-8/114433-ie-proxy-windows-8-server-2008r2.html#post979207

Had to start using Group Policy Preferences , the bottom part of group policy editor 'user configuration->preferences->control panel settings->internet settings'


I tried this and it worked:

I searched google and used this extra info:

This is what I did:
Open up the policy, and create an IE8 Preference: User Configuration --> Preferences --> Control Panel Settings --> Internet Settings --> New --> Internet Explorer 8.
Set my proxy settings.

Navigate to C:\Windows\SYSVOL\domain\Policies was an easier route, then sort by date for the recently created IE entry.
Navigate to User\Preferences\InternetSettings 
"Open up the "InternetSettings.xml" file, and change the MAX value to something above 10.0.0.0 (I usually put 10.5.0.0). This way, the policy won't trip up later on if IE 11 comes out and doesn't support any of these policies, but at least you'll be safe until 10.5.0, or until a hotfix is available. " -babylon78

max="10.5.0.0"
