Looking for: Transparent Http Proxy “Driver” for Windows

I have a windows computer inside a network where I have to use an HTTP proxy to access the internet.

Is it possible to install a program (or configure windows) in a way that I do not have to set the proxy in every single program?

So that the installed program or driver just forwards the traffic in a transparent way to the HTTP server (HTTP company proxy)?

There are several products which can do this, intercept outbound connections made by apps and divert them via a proxy.

One example of this is Proxifier which supports SOCKS and also CONNECT tunneling via an http proxy.

Another is the OpenText SOCKS client which uses the SOCKS protocol.

Try Win2Socks, it supports TCP & UDP.
