Windows 10: Forget WIFI in Win 10 but appear again

Forget WIFI in Win 10 but appear again. Anyone know what kind of magic is that?

Wifi network not appearing after recent Win 10 monthly patch


Someone else on another forum suggested I switch the wifi freq on my Android Nexus 5x. So I switched it from 5ghz to 2.4 and it worked! Problem solved. Now my Nexus hotspot is again appearing in my Win 10 list of available wifi networks. So problem was with Android and not Windows.

 

Forget a WiFi Network

Hi Jess,

Windows 10 saves a list of Wi-Fi networks you connect to along with their passwords and other settings. If you want to manage or delete a certain network, just follow the steps provided below:

• Type Settings on the search box.
• Click Network & Internet.
• Click Wi-Fi on the left pane of the Network & Internet window.
• Click Manage Wi-Fi settings.
• Select the network name and click Forget.

Note: Since you can't remember the network name you've connected with, you can consider forgetting all saved Wi-Fi networks on your PC.

Let us know how it goes.

 

No WiFi appeared at all after updating to Windows 10 from desktop PC


Hi, if Windows has not installed a driver, this tends to suggest maybe there isn't a compatible driver available.

Have you checked if your manufacturer has approved your desktop for upgrade to Win 10? Most manufacturers have published such a list.

Are you using a USB device or something else for WiFi for your desktop?
What is shown in Device Manager, Network adapters?
Realtek PCIe GEB Family Controller - appears to be for ethernet.

First see if there is a relevant driver on your manufacturer's site. Download and install it if so. You may have to use a driver for Win 8 for example.

At a pinch, you could try e.g. DriverMax (free) and scan for drivers. You may be in luck.

Please complete your system specs.
