WiFi and LAn connections

mardi 16 décembre 2014

Windows 7.



Every time Windows 7 sees a WiFi point it adds it to the registery at HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Wpad my 6 onth old instalation now has over 200 unused connections, can ccleaner compare the registery to the Windows GUI list and delete unused items.



In a similar way....



Every time a network connection is deleted from windows it leaves a registery listing these can manually be deleted from the reistery, I can't find the location right now.



This occurs frequently when VPN software is installed/uninstalled or a network card is changed. I am now up to Tunnel adaptor Local area connection*21 when I run ipconfig/all



Some of them can be deleted by doing the following,


  • Open Start Menu

  • Type In: Device Manager

  • Select Device Manager

  • Click the View menu from the top

  • Select Show Hidden Devices (Must be check before continuing)

  • Scroll down and expand Network Adapters

  • Right-Click a duplicated Microsoft 6to4 Adapter or Microsoft ISATAP Adapter

  • Select Uninstall

  • Click OK for the pop-up warning message

  • Repeat and repeat for each of the unwanted duplicated adapter

  • Close Device Manager when finish
