For example if I am using a free VPN(I know vpn and proxy not the same) and it looses the connection, for this short period of time my real IP is exposed, before connecting back to VPN again.
Does this occur if I am using proxy server setup in Windows 10 settings?
Settings -> Network & Internet -> Proxy
OR
Internetoptions -> “Connections” -> “LAN-Settings”->“Extended Options”
If yes, can I somehow prevent it from doing so.

No. The proxy settings are 1) completely optional, 2) not applicable to most non-HTTP-based protocols. (For example, protocols built on top of UDP are outright incompatible with HTTP proxies.)

If you have the habit of using a VPN and are worried about being disconnected,
then there are VPN products that will not allow any Internet connection that
is not via the VPN.
Search in the VPN product you are using for such a setting, or change to another
product.

Other people have discussed the network side, so I will point out a different issue: Applications.
Even if you could set up an airtight network setup where your public IP is never exposed, that doesnt guarantee that an application you are running doesnt expose it. Even a program from a developer you trust can accidentally expose your information. An application might have a security flaw, a bug, the user misconfigured it, or even by design, which exposes the public IP of the user. Here is one example of this.
Unless you can sniff the unexcrypted packets being sent by an application, its really hard to tell what information they are sending.
