Deleting a Wi-fi password

I would like to delete the password off of my Windows 10 Dell for my home network. How can I get it to forget the password? (Maybe there's a registry hack?)

Follow these steps to clear the wifi network and password from your device:

Select Start menu in your taskbar at the bottom left of your screen.
Go to 'Settings' and then 'Network & Internet'.
Select 'WiFi' on the left menu, then select 'Manage known networks'.
Select the network you want to remove, then click 'Forget'.
Now, verify that you device is no longer log-in automatically to the removed network.

You may also delete a Wi-Fi network profile using the Windows Command Prompt or Power Shell: Start the Command Prompt as administrator and type the following commands:

Commands	What does it do
netsh wlan show profiles	Shows a list of Wi-Fi profiles configured on the system.
netsh wlan delete profile name="profile name"	Deletes the specified Wi-Fi profile
netsh wlan delete profile name=*	Deletes ALL Wi-Fi profiles configured on the system.
