How to forget a saved Wi-Fi network

Windows 10/11 saves a list of Wi-Fi networks you connect to along with their passphrases and other settings. To stop your PC from connecting to a network automatically, you’ll need to make Windows “forget” the Wi-Fi network.

To delete a wireless network profile in Windows 10/11:

  1. Click the Network icon on the lower right corner of your screen.
  2. Click Network settings.
  3. Click Manage Wi-Fi settings.
  4. Under Manage known networks, click the network you want to delete.
  5. Click Forget. The wireless network profile is deleted.
