An easy way to remove wifi network in windows 7
To delete a wifi profile in Windows 7, it's a little different from Windows 8, 8.1 and Windows 10, because we can delete the WiFi profile in Windows 7 with the help of a mouse, without the command line.
The trick is to right-click on the wifi icon on the taskbar.
Then select the "Open Network and Sharing Center" menu.
After that, the "Network and Sharing Center" window will open as shown below, click on the "Manage wireless networks" menu as I marked in red.
Then select the SSID (wifi name) that will be deleted, then right-click and select the "Remove network" menu.
If the wifi profile has been deleted and you want to connect back to wifi, then you have to enter the password again.
As I explained above, removing this wifi profile is part of the troubleshooting process where the computer cannot connect to a wifi network.
