Delete known networks using CMD in Window


1) Open Command Prompt as Administrator:
  • Press Win + X and select Command Prompt (Admin) or Windows PowerShell (Admin).

2) List all known Wi-Fi networks: netsh wlan show profiles


3) Delete a specific network: netsh wlan delete profile name="NETWORK_NAME"
  • Replace NETWORK_NAME with the name of the network you want to delete.


To delete all WiFi profiles

  • netsh wlan delete profile name=* i=*

      Important things to consider before running this command:

  • This action is permanent. Once you delete the profiles, you won't be able to recover them without remembering the network details (SSID and password) to re-add them.
  • You will need to re-enter passwords for any WiFi networks you want to connect to after running this command.
