How to turn off WinHttp proxy?

Question

Not too long ago I turned on a proxy for WinHttp traffic like this (from this article):

netsh winhttp set proxy 127.0.0.1:8888

How can I turn the proxy off now? I can't seem to get the syntax right.

Open command prompt and enter the following commands:

netsh winhttp reset proxy
