Windows 10 on my laptop suddenly decided that it couldn't find my home WIFI network anymore. (It's done this twice in the last week)
I rebooted into Linux and the network was there... so it had nothing to do with the router, or my mac address being blacklisted.
I then went back onto Windows and tried various commands to reset my adapter and network settings, and deleted the network profiles it had stored.
Then I changed the network SSID.... and that worked.
Why is this?
I also found and deleted all occurrences of the old SSID in the registry (there were five), restarted windows, reset the SSID to what it was before, in order to test it... but still no luck.
Is there some command I can run to completely purge the machine of adapter history? Just as it is with a fresh OS install? Or, even better, a command to purge just that one SSID?
Thanks a lot for the response! Unfortunately that's something I've already tried. I suspect the problem could be something deeper – Matt B. – 2016-08-05T10:55:55.533
