I'm on Windows 10 Insider Preview and there's 'DNS over HTTPS' enabled in OS. Should i disable DOH in browser? Could this (DOH enabled in OS and browser) negatively affect the work of DOH?

General changes & improvements
We’re adding initial support for DNS over HTTPS, so that you can opt into using encryption when Windows makes DNS queries. Follow the instructions in this blog post to opt in as it will be off by default.

Once you know your Windows install has our DoH client, we need to activate it. You can do that by:

Opening the Registry Editor
Navigate to the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Dnscache\Parameters registry key
Create a new DWORD value named “EnableAutoDoh”
Set its value to 2

@indiqazzz I don't have the Windows 10 build with the DOH.

I guess you can just test and see if it works with just the system one enabled.
