I used the Setup Wizard to establish them, and now I want to remove them completely.  I use Windows XP SP3.

Try the step below to remove the connection to the computer's wireless network.

(a) click Start, click Control Panel, and then click network connections.

When you set up a network, Windows automatically creates a workgroup and gives it a name. As we cannot delete a task force but if you rename the working group which will remove access to other computers.

  • How can I remove the homegroup to my desktop icon?

    How can I remove the homegroup icon that suddenly appeared on my desktop Windows 8

    I know and respect the fact that Sharief K is a Microsoft Support Engineer. but he doesn't know what he's talking about as a Microsoft Support engineer or he didn't understand the question.

    However, here's how to solve the problem in the right way...

    Question about this community newsletter is:

    (Windows 8) How can I remove the 'host group icon"from the desktop?

    Answer:

    1 right-click somewhere on the desktop that is free of icon/s with the left button of the mouse.
    Select "Customize" in the context menu, which will take you to the selection of window customize.

    2. Select "Change desktop icons" in the area of the hand at the top left of this window.  A "Change desktop icons" dialog (context menu) is displayed.

    3. Note the box on the left of the 'network' is checked.  Uncheck the box and then left click of the mouse will apply.

    4. at this point, the 'host group icon"will be removed from the desktop.  Now again check the box to the left of the 'Network' and then the mouse left click apply.

    And your all set.  That is of course until what you restart your computer, in which case this problem will happen again.  Gives one does not want to restart its system ever if you have Windows 8.

    On a more personal note, I am A +, Network +, MCP and a Bachelor's degree in electronic engineering technology and experienced Microsoft since 1992 when I always still served in the U.S. Army.  Sorry, but I am appalled and disgusted with the OS of Windows 8 not to mention Microsoft Office.

  • How can I remove the automatic archiving on the outlook of acrobat add-in functionality?

    How can I remove the automatic archiving on the outlook of acrobat add-in functionality? We do not want our users archiving emails automatically.

    ID prefer to do with GPO

    Hi ewming111,

    The wizard provides only the UI to configure Acrobat itself. You're talking about the function is provided by the PDFMaker add-in.

    The preference is apparently (starting from a quick test) HKU\S-1-5-21-762979615-2031575299-929701000-51250\Software\Adobe\Acrobat\PDFMaker\10.0\Ou tlook\Synchronization\Outlook\Enabled: 0x00000000.

    You can deploy via GPO, using the function of register of the wizard, or any other method that you use to propagate the settings.

    Kind regards

  • How can I remove the tones created in garageband that have been uninstalled? I also installed but I can't remove it either please help thanks

    How can I remove the tones created in garageband that have been uninstalled? I also installed but I can't remove it either please help thanks

    Hello Michael,

    • Press to select, then press the button Delete for any ringtone you want to delete.

  • How can I remove "the folder/Users/user/to/mygame doesn't exist." Terminal. Rises every time I launch Terminal.

    How can I remove "the folder/Users/user/to/mygame doesn't exist." Terminal. Rises every time I launch Terminal. I am a novice. Thank you very much.

    1. Please select from the menu bar Terminal

    ▹ terminal preferences... ▹ Profiles ▹ Shell

    If the run command box is checked, uncheck it or enter the command to run automatically (if any), each opening of a Terminal window. Note: this is not how you define a default shell.

    2. If step 1 does not resolve the problem, see below.

    Back up all data.

    Select

    New Shell command ▹

    in the Terminal menu bar. Uncheck the box marked

    Run the command inside a shell

    If it is enabled.

    Copy and paste the following line into the text box that appears, and then press return:

    /bin/mkdir disabled_shell_files

    Close the Terminal window that opens. Repeat with this line:

    /bin/mv .profile .bash_history .bash_profile .bashrc .inputrc disabled_shell_files

    History Shell and former initialization files will be saved in a directory named "disabled_shell_files" at the top level of your home directory. It is normal that some of these files do not exist, and therefore, you will get error "no file".

    Close the window and open a new test.

    You may already know that files with name starting in '. ' are not visible in the Finder by default. So, if you open the folder that you created in the Finder, it will appear as empty, even if it is not. If you need to recover a portion of the data in the files of the shell, use a shell such as nano-based text editor (1). Make sure that you're not recreating the problem. Otherwise, you can delete the folder.

  • I imported my address books. How can I remove the default empty

    I imported my address from my old computer books in Thunderbird on my new computer. Empty default address books don't seem to be able to be deleted, so I have now two books personal address and two collected addresses, the first of all is the default value for empty one and the second is my populated version. Thunderbird seems to point to the default empty. How can I remove the empty for default Thunderbird to my places.

    Thank you

    I don't think you can remove the default books. I open any personal book, select a contact, do a control + a to select all and drag in the personal address book by default. Then delete the empty book. Then do the same for the collected books.
