Let $X$ be a regular Noetherian scheme. I read in Milne's book on Etale Cohomology that this implies that $H^2(X_{Zar},\mathcal{O}_X^\times)=0$. Can anyone explain the proof of this fact or give a reference to the proof?

Consider posting on MathOverflow for a change of getting an answer from Mline himself: https://mathoverflow.net/users/930/js-milne – Tanner Strunk Jan 23 '18 at 05:57
