How to completely REMOVE a network created from "setting up the wireless ad-hoc (computer-to-computer) network"?

I have tried (in vain) to set up a network "wireless ad hoc" to allow another pc share my internet connection (which works fine).

Needless to say, it didn't work!  But now... every time I search for wireless networks, my ad - hoc network returns as an available network.  Worse still, it now shows that non-secure, even if I got it.

So I need to remove quickly... but HOW please?

I "removed" control Panel\Manage wireless networks, but it keeps reappearing in the list of available wireless networks to connect to.

Try this:

Go to control panel > Classic view > Network and Sharing Center > customize > merge or delete network location > highlight the network, and then click on remove.

I hope this helps.

Good luck!

    I received an email from political spam Conservapoll decision 2016.  I get a lot of political emails.  I read this one and in the process, it seems to have inserted information for a new e-mail account on my iPhone.  The settings page does not contain the box "delete this account" expected at the bottom.  So far I was not able to delete the account settings, even if I reset my main server.  I drop probably to the Apple local Store to chat with a technician, but I fear that this bode for Apple IOS security implications.

  • How to completely remove Beats Audio from my system?

    My computer is a number of product p7-1534, H2N63AA #ABA, running 64-bit Windows 8.1.  The audio driver was an IDT, downloaded directly at HP, specifically planned for my system.  I'm trying to figure out how to completely remove the Beats Audio from my system.  It appears in the Beats Audio, but don't control panel displays in the section programs, so I can't figure out how to uninstall IT... or it can be uninstalled without uninstalling the entire driver?  I tried to disable the Beats Audio screen and it cleared more of the effect it has on the audio, but not all - the bass is still substantially stronger than it should be.  All I want is for the music to sound just as it was initially recorded in the studio, not artificially enhanced by Beats Audio.

    I think that I'm finally rid of him.  I searched drive C for 'beats' and 'beat' and erased all those who appear to be associated with the Beats Audio.  I had to do that three times, each time by removing all tht files Beats appeared in a search.  Finally, after the third startup, nothing showed up in the search.  My audio works just fine and no more Beats Audio.  I guess I could still run beats through the motherboard, but, as long as I don't try to run beats, it loads is no longer automatically at startup.

    Thanks for your time.

  • How to tell if someone uses remote adjustment to control the use of my computer?

    How to tell if someone uses remote adjustment to control the use of my computer?

    * original title - monitoring computer use *.

    Hello

    Why do you think that someone is watching your computer use? One would have to have
    loaded tracking software (trojan) on your computer or have access to the source of the network
    you use, such as cable, on your leg of it and have very sophisticated equipment.

    If you need search malware here's my recommendations - they will allow you to
    scrutiny and the withdrawal without ending up with a load of spyware programs running
    resident who can cause as many questions as the malware and may be harder to detect as
    the cause.

    No one program cannot be used to detect and remove any malware. Added that often easy
    to detect malicious software often comes with a much harder to detect and remove the payload. Then
    its best to be thorough than paying the high price later now too. Check with them to one
    extreme overkill point and then run the cleaning only when you are sure that the system is clean.

    It can be made repeatedly in Mode safe - F8 tap that you start, however, you must also run
    the regular windows when you can.
