“#How to Forget Wi-Fi Networks a Mac Previously Connected to”<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n\"Apple's<\/p>\n

Macs automatically remember all the Wi-Fi networks you\u2019ve ever connect to along with their passphrases. If you\u2019re having trouble connecting to Wi-Fi, you can remove the list of networks to troubleshoot your problem.<\/p>\n

If there\u2019s a network you previously connected to that\u2019s no longer working, deleting it and connecting again is a good place to start your troubleshooting. Whether you want to remove one wonky network or you want to every Wi-Fi network macOS has saved over the years, you can do it from the same place on your Mac\u2019s Network preferences screen.<\/p>\n

First, open System Preferences. To do so, click the \u201cApp<\/a>le\u201d icon at the top left side of the menu bar and select \u201cSystem Preferences.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"apple<\/p>\n

From the System Preferences menu, click the \u201cNetwork\u201d option.<\/p>\n

\"system<\/p>\n

Make sure you have \u201cWi-Fi\u201d selected on the left side of the window and click the \u201cAdvanced\u201d button at the bottom of the window to bring up more options.<\/p>\n

\"network<\/p>\n

Click the network you want to delete to highlight it. If you want to delete multiple networks, Command+Click each one. Click the \u201c-\u201c button to delete the networks.<\/p>\n

\"network<\/p>\n

Click \u201cRemove\u201d on the pop-up to remove the networks. If you selected more than one network to remove, you can check \u201cApply To All\u201d to avoid seeing this pop-up multiple times.<\/p>\n

\"remove<\/p>\n

If you want to avoid saving Wi-Fi networks in the future, you can uncheck the box next to \u201cRemember Networks This Computer Has Joined.\u201d It\u2019s not really necessary, but if digital clutter drives you crazy, it\u2019s always an option.<\/p>\n

\"network<\/p>\n

Click the \u201cOK\u201d button at the bottom right when you\u2019re done.<\/p>\n

\"macos<\/p>\n

Finally, click the \u201cApply\u201d button to apply the changes.<\/p>\n

\"network<\/p>\n

You can now close the System Preferences window. The next time you connect to a deleted network, you\u2019ll have to select it in your Mac\u2019s Wi-Fi menu manually\u2014and you\u2019ll have to type the network\u2019s passphrase again, too.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
