To uninstall the CAT (Configuration Assistant Tool) installer from eduroam on Windows 10 | |
PS: | |
The CAT installer itself usually configures the network and installs certificates but does not stay as a running application, so it often doesn’t show up in Programs | |
Remove eduroam from Windows | |

Method 1: Using Windows Settings (Recommended) | |
Uninstalling the eduroam CAT Installer Configuration | |
Step 1: Forget the eduroam Wi-Fi Network | |
This removes saved credentials and the network profile. | |
Open Settings → Network & Internet. | |
Go to Wi-Fi → Manage known networks. | |
Find and click on eduroam → Select Forget. | |
Method 2: Certificate Cleanup (if needed) | |
Step 2: Remove the eduroam CAT Certificates (Optional but recommended) | |
Press Win + R, type certmgr.msc, and press Enter. | |
In Certificates – Current User, expand Trusted Root Certification Authorities → click Certificates. | |
Look for any certificates related to eduroam, your institution, or the CAT installer (e.g., GEANT OV RSA CA 4, etc.). | |
Right-click on them and choose Delete (only if you’re sure they are related to eduroam or your institution's CAT installer). | |
You may also check Personal → Certificates for user-specific ones. | |
For Local Machine (Admin Required): | |
Run certlm.msc (as administrator: right-click Command Prompt and select "Run as administrator"). | |
Follow the same steps as above to remove certificates. | |
Method 3: Manual Wi-Fi Profile Removal (Optional but recommended) | |
If the installer created Wi-Fi profiles that weren't removed: | |
Open Command Prompt as Administrator | |
Type: netsh wlan show profiles | |
Find any eduroam profiles listed | |
Remove them with: netsh wlan delete profile name="ProfileName" | |
Restart Your Computer | |
Reboot to ensure all changes take effect. |
