Windows 10: How do I disable ALL "Connect Automatically" check boxes in Windows 10

I want a command, power shell script, registry change, Act of Congress, Executive Order, magic spell, potion, or extraterrestrial intervention to automatically disable the "functionality" of all Windows 10 Available Networks "Connect Automatically" check boxes for networks I've never signed into. I don't want to hide those networks, just disable the check box function. Alternatively, if that's not possible, I want to disable the checkbox function completely, but still see the available networks.

Windows 10 not automatically connecting (I've read other solutions)


Okay, I'm having an interesting issue. A desktop that was upgraded from Windows 7 64bit to Windows 10 64bit using the normal upgrade path. I forgot to uninstall my internet security software (Comodo) so I had to fight the "no wifi after upgrade" issue. I got that resolved by following the steps others have found.

However, now my wifi is not saving the password nor is it remembering the "Connect Automatically" settings. That is, I uncheck the box for all other available connections, (even the one I want to automatically connect to eventually), but after reboot, the box is checked again.

Solutions I've tried.
1. Uninstall the wifi adapter in Device Manager. Unplug device. Reboot to Windows 10 desktop. Plug adapter back into the USB slot. Setup wifi connection with automatically connect checked. Reboot and no automatic connection.
2. In Manage WiFi Settings, remove any "known networks" from the list. The Forget button is not available in the popup list from the tasktray. Reboot. Reset. Reboot and no automatic connection.

Are there any other tricks I may try that I've missed in my search?

Remote assistance box is checked automatically in Windows 10

Hi Robert,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

Please provide more information to help you better:

• • 
    Did you uncheck the box?
    
  • 
    Did you face the same issue after unchecking the box?
    
  • 
    Are you facing this issue on a local account or the Microsoft account?
    
  • 
    Which version of Windows 10 is installed on the pc?
    

I suggest you to Sign out from the current user account, restart the pc and login to the admin account or the Microsoft account to check.

I would also suggest you to do a clean boot and check if any third party apps are causing the issue.
Placing the computer in a clean boot state can reduce software conflicts and help identify the root cause of the issue.

Please refer to the article below for steps to perform a clean boot.
