Chrome asks for proxy authentication for every page I open, IE doesn't

Chrome used to run properly, when all of sudden it started asking for my proxy's username and password on every page I open. After I enter them, I see the page, but then I need to type them again whenever I open another link.

Chrome (last version) is behind my university's proxy, whose address is configured in Win7 "lan settings". IE works fine. I Restarted Chrome, but it didn't help.

What could it be?

Thank you.

Go to Settings.

Scroll down to "+ Show advanced settings" and click it.

Scroll down until you see "Network," and click "Change proxy settings..."

Once you get there, you should see a dialog box similar to what would pop in IE's settings, and you're going to click the "Connections" tab.

In that tab, you'll see near the lower right-hand corner "LAN Settings," click it.

Once loaded, at the bottom, if the "Proxy server" box is checked, uncheck it and see if that works.

If you are dealing with VPN and you need to set proxy on and off then you can try some chrome extension to set the username and password automatically.

e.g., "proxy auto auth" or "proxy helper".

I had the same issues. I just removed some VPN and adblock extentions and turned off some of them, and the problem fixed. Everything got back instantly.
