I am trying to change the password for a wifi network connection on Windows 7. But the old password keeps coming back. So I'd like to simply delete the old connection ("my-network") and just create a new one.
Here's what I tried:
Control Panel > Network and Sharing Center > Manage Wireless Networks > Click the network, then click Delete.
Reboot the computer, and "my-network" is back in the control panel.
Open
regedit
search for "my-network" in all keys, values and data, and delete all keys that contain the value.Reboot the computer, and "my-network" is back in the control panel.
Open
cmd
as Administrator, thennetsh wlan delete profile name=my-network
as per this answer: How can I clear out all old Wi-fi settings on Windows 7?Reboot the computer, and the network is back when I type
netsh wlan show profiles
How can I remove this network (profile?) for good?
