I set my proxy settings using the following command

export http_proxy= 

When I do

echo $http_proxy 

I get

 

However when I do

unset $http_proxy 

I get an error

-bash: unset: ` not a valid identifier 

So I did

$http_proxy = "" 

which also gives me the following error

-bash: No such file or directory 

How do I completely remove this proxy setting?

The correct way to use unset is without the $, so you can do the following:

unset http_proxy 

to unset your proxy settings or you can even use the following:

http_proxy="" 

Note that there is no space in before and after the =.
