Quick overview:

Even professionals are constantly getting lost in Windows Vista when it comes to selecting network devices. There you can, for example, (de)activate network devices or change the settings. This usually requires several clicks. However, it is easier with the following step:

1. press "Windows key+R" and type in the "Execute" line "ncpa.cpl" in.

Windows_Vista-229

2. you will immediately be taken to the network connections! You can also log out via "New/Link" to create a shortcut for the desktop so that you can access it more quickly.

Sincerely,
Yours, Sandro Villinger

Founded Windows Tweaks as a teenager in 2001, his helpful PC tricks made it Germany's most visited Windows site (at the time Sandro looked like this). He then went on to write for international publications such as PC-Praxis, Computerbild, PCWorld in the USA, IMTEST.de and Hifi.de. Sandro's main job is as Global Product Marketing Lead and Consultant for various global tech companies, including Microsoft, AVG, Avast, Nero, TeamViewer, Swiss IT Security Group and now currently in the fintech sector for Gendigital. But he can't get rid of his passion and shares his tweaks here again. Privately, he enjoys traveling the world and loves Asia, especially Japan, Singapore and Korea, but also natural places like Iceland and the Nordics. You can reach Sandro via e-mail.
