View Currently visible networks

  • Start Command Prompt window (cmd.exe) as administrator…
  • Type:
netsh wlan show networks

(Optional) Type the following command to view the saved profiles for a specific interface and press Enter:

netsh wlan show profiles interface="WLAN-INTERFACE-NAME"
  • In the command, replace the WLAN-INTERFACE-NAME for the actual name of the interface. You can use the <fc #ff0000>netsh interface show interface</fc> command to find out the exact name.

For example, this command shows the profiles saved for the “Wi-Fi” interface:

netsh wlan show profiles interface="wi-fi"

  • Once you complete the steps, the command will output the profiles from all the wireless networks you connected in the past on every adapter installed on the computer.
