Network keeps on adding up

[cyclonechuah]

Hello, is there a way to clear the network list? and also how to make Mudfish to use back the previous network to avoid this issue ?
everytime i login into mudfish and when my connection shows up, the number keeps on increasing without using back the old one.
Example:
Open Mudfish, Login.
Local Area Connection, TAP-Win32 Adapter V9, Network 7
Close Mudfish.
Open Mudfish, Login.
Local Area Connection, TAP-Win32 Adapter V9, Network 8
Close Mudfish.
Open Mudfish, Login.
Local Area Connection, TAP-Win32 Adapter V9, Network 9
Close Mudfish.
Open Mudfish, Login.
Local Area Connection, TAP-Win32 Adapter V9, Network 10
Close Mudfish.
Open Mudfish, Login.
Local Area Connection, TAP-Win32 Adapter V9, Network 11
Close Mudfish.

The network number just keep on adding up. now i’m on 39.

@cyclonechuah

thanks for the information and the quick fix. But that is just a temporally solution and require removal after a certain period of time usage.

I would prefer to have a permanent fix, like letting the network adapter to recognize and use back the old network without creating new one so i have to go delete again, because it’s annoying.

Hello cyclonechuah,

This is a update since you reported this issue. While I’m looking into MSDN API provided Microsft, I’d found a API set called Network List Manager (NLM) to enumerate network locations created by Windows but Microsoft didn’t provide official API to delete cached entries on the windows registry. So It looks there is no way as a programable method to address this issue except manually deleting or merging these using UI mentioned on the above URL links. I’ll keep my eye into this issue and make a patch when some API is available on Windows side.
