  1. How to change password in network setting without forgetting network entirely


    Hi,I currently work for an employer who has secure network facilities with new network password changed every week.Now my question is how do I change the required new password, without having to completely forget about the network and then reconnect.Is there a more efficient way or is it possible to program a password required box at the start of every week.

    :)

  2. 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.

  3. password for accessing my wifi network

    Hi Mitzi,

    We recommend that you contact the support team of your internet service provider. They are the ones who can assist you in changing your Wi-Fi password. You can also check the manual of your router for the steps. Once you're able to change your password,
    forget the registered network profile in your settings so that you can register it again with the new password. To do so, kindly follow these steps:

    • Type change wi-fi settings on the search bar.
    • Click on Change Wi-Fi settings.
    • Click on Manage known networks.
    • Click on your Wi-Fi network profile, then click on Forget.
    • Turn off your Wi-Fi, then turn it on again.
    • Connect to your Wi-Fi network profile using your new password.

    Don't hesitate to reach out to us if you need further assistance with your concern.

    Windows won't forget WiFi network

    I have 3 old Wifi networks that I want to get rid of in the list of networks. All devices show them in the WiFi list and when i click Forget, they come right back. When I go to Manage networks in Settings, they're not there, but still show in the list on every device. How can I get rid of them?

    Windows Version 10.0.19042 Build 19042
    The first image is the list of networks. I want to remove the Blackwellhome ones. The second is obviously the Manage Networks in Settings.
