    Windows 10 wifi connection


    Why does my computer say "Can't connect to this network?" when it really means "Your password was rejected"?Were the developers too incompetent to figure out why the connection failed? Could they really not determine it was a rejected password versus some other failure?Or maybe there's some kind of limit in Windows 10 architecture that prevents them from displaying a different error message? Is Windows so poorly designed the wifi connection component can only handle one single error message? Or perhaps they were just too lazy to implement more than one error message? I mean, if so, I get it --
