Windows 10: Wont give me the option to select a wifi network

So I guess my computer updated overnight and now I cant figure out how to connect it to the internet. Normally I just click the little world symbol in the bottom right corner, but whenever I click it all it shows is bluetooth, airplane mode, battery saver, focus assist, and accessibility. I tried going to the network and internet options in the settings but it doesnt give me an option to pick a wifi to connect to there either. Can someone please tell me how I can pick a wifi to please

select preferred wifi network on Windows Phone 7?

Hello Chariteach,

Currently, there is no way to "set" which WIFI should connect first.

WIFI attempts to connect in alphabetical order of the WIFI list.

One way I have been able to bypass a WIFI connection in my list-in your case,"network a"

Use the following steps to prevent a WIFI profile from connecting in WIFI network settings:

* tap/hold and edit the login for "network a", add a 1 to your username. i.e. chris1

* "network a" will no longer connect since login username is incorrect.

* The WIFI connection search will skip to your next option, "network b"

* This should now only connect to "network b"

In the future, when you want to use "network a" then tap/hold and correct the login.

*note- When the option to delete the WIFI connection is used, i.e. "network a", would be temporary and reappears upon WP7 searching for WIFI.

 

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.

Follow:
