WiFi Sense was one of those options with which Microsoft cajoled us before the release of Windows 10. Well he used it to demonstrate the capabilities of the new edition of his popular operating system.
And it is now when Microsoft has decided root out this option to share the Wi-Fi network already named by WiFi Sense. This is one of the features that you have removed after verifying that it was a feature that has been put to very little use.
WiFi Sense was announced with great fanfare as a feature that would allow the user to connect to a Wi-Fi network without a password. In this way, any friend who came to our house could connect to the wireless network without having to go through copying the password and typing it into their terminal.
Perhaps the big mistake. So what did not know how to manage Microsoft to improve this feature. is that you had to share access to your network with all or none of the contacts, since it did not allow manual access to a specific one.
Another of its negative points is that compromised wireless network security, since at one point he had to pass the password in an encrypted form to Microsoft's servers. So finally Microsoft found itself with a huge number of passwords stored on its servers, so that with a possible hack or loss it would endanger the security of thousands of users around the world, something that no company would want to go through. its possible implications.
It is in the Windows 10 Anniversary Update that will cease to exist forever this WiFi Sense functionality. So we are heading towards a major update that will have big changes as it looks like it's going to be.
