    Wifi known profiles always return even if forgotten


    Hi!I have tried several times to remove old unused wifi connections from my known networks but all the networks are being restored after reset.It looks like it related to my Microsoft account which save the networks somewhere and restore it when connecting again to the account.it is really annoying and disturbing since I think I have some conflicts between old to new networks and I fail to connect my new one.It connects and then get stuck after few seconds.Are those networks might be deleted from my account?Thanks,Barak

    :)

    Local profile issue after upgrading to 1903

    Hi roblinb

    Not listed in the Known.

    Known issues for Windows 10 May 2019 Update version 1903


    As far as Wifi any chance it is Qualcom inside USB adapter, if Qualcom then yes known issue.


    I might create another user (Local) and when if try again see if this issue occurs on both users.

    Would also suggest you run the first 5 steps in this tutorial to see if you have any corruption with current build.

    Use DISM to Repair Windows 10 Image

    Lost default photo viewer after profile rebuild

    Thanks Brink. I've tried those steps before i started searching Google. After the profile rebuild i don't have the Photo app listed to choose to make it default in either the system settings for default apps or the Open With option.

    I can't even find it doing a search. Seems to have been removed somehow with the profile rebuild, which doesn't make sense.

    Might be helpful to list what i've done Wifi known profiles always return even if forgotten :) I've done the open with check, the choose default program in the system menu, tried that in device manager default programs also. I've checked the programs and features Turn windows features on/off and it's not listed there (never thought it was but that was a suggestion), searched the MS Store, it's not listed there either.

    I don't like playing in the registry unless i have defined steps and haven't found anything for this yet, just the Win7 version like in my OP.
