Windows 10 - Changing network profile from public to private

Sometimes you need to make sure that your network profile are defined as “Private”, for instance when you want to connect to the computer with Remote desktop, or other firewall related configurations.

First time you connect to a network you will get a pop up that actually are asking you if you want the network to be used as a “Private” or “Public” network, it just ask in a bit “confusing” way.

(Domain profile” are only available for domain joined computers and will be automatic selected if there is a domain controller on the network).

Clean install can be done when the ISO file is available later (when the build hits slow ring), or when you create your own ISO with this guide from the ESD file
