[SOLVED] Disable Wpad

[Ferdly1]

How do I disable wpad in windows 10. I tried to disable it but wasn't allowed. Even tried in admin mode.

What told you it was not allowed?
Is this a personal system or company?

it might depend on which version of win 10 you are on. If you on a version prior to 20H1 (2004) then it might not let you.
After that you can simply remove it via Optional features - https://winaero.com/uninstall-wordpad-in-windows-10/

I tried to disable it under services. It would not allow me. However I found there was another way under proxy and when I looked it was turned off. Thanks for your help.
