My laptop has Wi-Fi and Ethernet (when docked). For some reason Wi-Fi comes up as Private network , and docked comes up as Public . In neither case did I set either as Private or Public .
Où dois-je set this on Windows 10? Il semble que I am missing something here…

Je pense that the easiest method to change your network to Private is through the Éditeur du registre:
Do a search for regedit , then faites un clic droit sur and Run en tant qu’administrateur
If necessary, acknowledge the UAC prompt
Naviguez vers the following location:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\NetworkList\Profiles
Expand the Profiles key and navigate through each GUID key below that, noting the corresponding ProfileName à droite:
Quand vous trouvez le ProfileName of the network you want to change to Private, double-cliquez sur on the Category DWORD à droite-hand
side:
Change the ‘Value data’ from 0 (Public) to 1 (Private):
Close the Éditeur du registre
