Configuring Avast Firewall and Wi-Fi Inspector
« on: December 29, 2020, 02:32:25 AM »
How do I clear or edit the list of network profiles?  There are more than 80 there.  I will never connect to at least 70 of them again.

My Home (Private) network is listed as Public in Wi-Fi Inspector.  Is there any way to change this?  The list of connected networks in Wi-Fi Inspector is only 12.  Why the great discrepancy between this and the previous list?

Hi,

For Wi-Fi Inspector, this can be done by going to Menu> Settings> Protection> Wi-Fi Inspector> hover over the entry and to the right of it, a delete (bin) icon will appear.
For Avast Firewall, this option does not exist.
