Reconnecting to a Wireless Network in Windows 10

I can see my WiFi network, but it won't connect?


Windows 10 has a habit of occasionally forgetting WiFi information and getting 'stuck' trying to reconnect to your network.

If this happens, you can manually 'Forget' your wireless network and re-connect to it by following the steps below:
  1. Click on your Network icon in the bottom right corner of your desktop
  2. A small window will appear, click "Network & Internet Settings"
  3. Click "WiFi" in the left side menu
  4. Click "Manage Known Networks" and find your network name
  5. Click your network once and press the "Forget" button
After forgetting your network, you will be prompted to enter your network password the next time you connect.
