how to get windows to forget a network password?

is there a way to change the settings so that Windows does not remember the network password after it connects, so that upon disconnecting it won't reconnect without that password?

Answer 1

Don't check "remember password" when you provide credentials.

To remove already stored credentials in XP and below;

control userpasswords2

The dialogue has changed somewhat in Vista/7, ("the vault") but I think it provides the same functionality.

Answer 2

net use /persistent:no http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb490717.aspx

Create a script to add the ones you want for your logon session. Great applet for a powershell alias.

Answer 3

When you connect to a wireless network in Windows Vista, simply clear the box Save this network and the details will not be stored.

Answer 4

As in your other question -

Yes, there are a few ways.

First, from an elevated (Windows Vista and 7) command prompt type:

Net use * /delete

Next, if the password is cached, go to Start > Run and type control userpasswords2, you should be able to click on the Advanced tab and then click on the Manage Passwords button to delete.

Alternatively you can use Nirsoft Network Password Recovery and delete any saved password from there.

If again you are talking about Wireless network passwords and not Windows network resource passwords.

For Windows XP, simply go to "Network Connections" and right click your Wireless card, look for the middle tab Wireless Networks and under preferred networks, simply press delete on the correct one.

For Windows Vista and 7, Go to Network and Sharing Center and click Manage Wireless Networks then simply delete the networks you no longer want to connect to.

If you do not want to connect to a network automatically in the future, remember to uncheck the box Save this Network
