I have 3 networks showing up which I have not selected. Worse still they have "connect automatically" checked. If you try to unconnect them, they immediately go back to connect automatically. If you try to remove them through the "network and internet" page, they do not appear under "manage known networks". I do have a virtual machine installed but this should not have it's own dedicated wireless network. And if it did, it would be named something I would recognise.
How do I get rid of these networks. I feel like i have been hacked.
Thanks!

You can do two things:
Uncheck “Connect automatically “ and close the connection.
Open cmd.exe with Run as Administrator by clicking on the Start icon, scroll down to Windows System, then right click on Command Prompt to choose Run as Administrator.
Then netsh wlan show profiles to see your current profiles
Then netsh wlan delete profile name=profile name for every profile you do not want.
Restart and test your wireless
If there are still networks you are trying to connect to, try a Wireless Scanner to see them; see
Then, having discovered them with one of these scanners, hide them from your computer, following:
