Changing Chrome Internet connectivity settings on Windows: Internet Options

Fortunately, it is using the Operating System Internet Options dialog which typically can be easily displayed from Internet Explorer.

Tip: Opening Internet Properties without opening Internet Explorer

Although the Internet Options dialogue box appears as a implicit component within the Internet Explorer, it can be called separately without the need even to open the browser. This is very helpful especially if you are using a laptop like me, and within the office you need to enable  the proxy settings and to disable it every time you are out of the office. Moreover, knowing that most other applications read from that place for the proxy settings, it appears to me as a very handy shortcut.
