Manage Wireless Networks (ManageWirelessNetworks) is a new free and portable application for Windows-based devices for managing wireless networks. The new Nirsoft application displays all the known wireless network profiles, ie everything you have used in the past, and their interface during the release.
You can use it, among other things, to delete wireless network profiles that you will not use again.
In terms of compatibility, ManageWirelessNetworks supports all versions of Windows from Windows Vista onwards, 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the operating system.
Each wireless profile displays the profile name and SSID, which was used for identification, as well as information about security features, build times and more. The connection type reveals whether the connection attempts are (or were) automatic or manual.
Manage Wireless Networks A right-click on a profile displays a list of options:
- Change the SSID or profile name - the latter can be useful to add a more descriptive and easier-to-recognize name.
- Change the connection mode - automatic or manual.
- Define authentication encryption.
- Copy one profile or copy it to another network profile.
- Change the position of the profile
You won't find any choice deletions in the context menu. Delete is available at the top of the main toolbar. Just select one or more network profiles and press the delete button (confirmation required). The positions of the remaining profiles are adjusted automatically when some profiles are deleted.
Profiles can be saved and you can also generate reports, a standard feature of almost all Nirsoft applications. It has support command line, but only to save wireless network profiles to one of the supported export file types, e.g. xml, html or json.
ManageWirelessNetworks is a handy program for a quick overview of all saved wireless network profiles on Windows computers. It is great for deleting old profiles on system and changing profile names for better identification.
