# Get list of previously connected Wi-Fi networks on Windows devices

Unsecured Wi-Fi networks lurk around every corner, posing a major risk to corporate data. That's why administrators need to keep a watchful eye on where their devices are connecting. Monitoring Wi-Fi connections helps ensure they only land on safe and authorized networks.

The following PowerShell script helps the IT Admins to get the list of previously connected Wi-Fi networks on their managed Windows devices.

1. Create a file on your desktop, for example, **list_of_previously_connected_wifi_networks.ps1** and open it in a text editor like notepad++
2. Copy the contents below to the file or click [here](https://cdn.document360.io/175c0eac-012f-4410-bdc5-ac60794f82d8/Images/Documentation/fetch%20the%20list%20of%20previously%20connected%20Wi-Fi%20networks.ps1) to download the file.

```powershell
Netsh wlan show profiles |Write-Output
```
3. You will be able to see the list of previously connected Wi-Fi networks in the Output tab on the View Status report on the dashboard.
