Help Working The Client

[mechace1]

So, I'm a bit new to this. I was messing around with settings in Bitcoin Core and accidentally set a proxy and restarted the program. Now it won't open because its an invalid proxy so it hits an error message then just closes. What do I do? I have bit in that wallet that hasnt shown up yet because it hasn't fully synced.

If you are on windows, open the registry editor (go to start and type in regedit and open the program that shows up) and go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER > Software > Bitcoin > Bitcoin-Qt. You should see on the right a bunch of stuff, these are the options you set in settings. Scroll until you see fUseProxy and double click that. Change the value data to false and click ok. Then start the client and it should work.
