    Network - Public or Private

    I want to change an ethernet network from public to private. In version 1703 this could be done by Settings > Network & Internet > Ethernet, then click on "connected" to get a page with the Metered Connection on/off switch and on that screen you could change
    a network from Public to Private or visa-versa. In version 1709 that option is not on that screen and I can't find it anywhere else.

    Does anyone know how to change an ethernet from public to private or v-v in Win 10 version 1709?

    Post 10 upgrade on 7-64bit machine Private vs Public network issue

    My PC connected immediately as a "Private" Ethernet connection but my wife's PC is set to "Public" and has no connectivity - and I have no idea how to change it to "Private"?! Both are over Ethernet - NOT a wireless issue. (I actually have her connected
    currently wirelessly on a "Private" connection - but as soon as we plug in the Ethernet cable it goes to "Public"!) Please advise.

    Thank you!

    It says it only shows you how to change to Public, Private or Domain. Wait is the home network location not a thing in win 10?

    EDIT: Hmm could it be that they just renamed home to private?*sarc
