ability to manage Windows Network Location

Since AutoSwitch is relying on Windows Network Location, I would suggest NetSetMan provide the ability to manage Windows Network Locations, like delete old Windows Network Locations, change category etc.
At the moment, i have to go into HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\NetworkList\Profiles to delete the locations i dont want to see in NetSetMan

Re: ability to manage Windows Network Location

Thanks a lot for all your suggestions over the weekend! We'll respond to them one by one.

Just to clarify: Switching profiles based on Windows Network Locations is only one of several available conditions.

What you're requesting is actually a feature for cleaning up some configuration in Windows. This actually won't support the application's purpose of switching between network settings. While we agree that it's a nice-to-have functionality in some cases we also have to consider if the time spending for developing such a feature is worth putting other features behind. We believe there're are some great features in development and in queue that we shouldn't slow down for this. But we'll put this idea on our internal list for consideration at a later point of time.
