Windows 10: Hidden Network?

I noticed this available network called hidden network appear. What is strange is It’s signal is as strong as my network cropped out so it’s not pictured see image. I am unable to access it as I never set it up to begin with. I am not sure I ever noticed it before. How do I remove it as an option? I logged into my router and don’t see it so what gives? I cannot see it as an option in my Apple devices just PC. Was this a feature that was part of an update to windows 10 in the recent past 2 years or so? Thanks

Delete "hidden network"

Hi,

Deleting or Blocking available networks can only be done using Command Prompt. Follow the steps below:

• Open Command Prompt.
• Type netsh wlan add filter permission=block ssid="WLAN name"
  networtype=infrastructure (Replace WLAN name with "hidden network" or the name of the wireless network you want to block) and press
  Enter.
  
• Close Command Prompt.

To remove/delete the network from the block list. Replace "add" with "delete" on the command in step two.

Looking forward to your response.
