Configure proxy settings in Notepad++ via Plugin Manager

I would like to configure proxy settings in Notepad++ to allow downloads from the internet via a proxy. After searching how to do that from the net I understand that I need to do that in the Plugin Manager, via the Settings button. When I go to Plugins>Plugin Manager>Show Plugin Manager>Settings I get the dialog box below which does not give me any option for indicating the proxy settings. How do I get to the point that I need to indicate the proxy settings?

with version 7.6.6 (april 2019) (probably onwards), you can run notepad++ as admin, use menu '?' > Set Updater Proxy... close notepad++ and open it again as standard user.
