In this article, we shall discuss the steps on How to disable Network (Wireless) UI from the Welcome screen. The Network (Wireless) UI in Windows enables you to manage your PC’s wireless (Wi-Fi) connections. This interface presents various options for connecting to, configuring, and managing wireless networks. Please see How to Install Azure DevOps Server 2022, how to Change Visual Studio Code UI language, and “How to disable the Windows welcome screen and shutdown screen“.

This wireless network interface can be accessed by clicking on the Wi-Fi icon in the system tray (lower-right corner of the taskbar). The icon will look like a signal strength symbol, with bars indicating connection quality.
