Hi everyone, I'm attempting to switch my connection setting to "Wi-Fi Virtual" using PowerShell commands. The command I tried is:

Netsh interface set interface name=" Local Area Connection* 2 " newname=" Wi-Fi Virtual ""

But it keeps showing an error saying no such interface exists. Do you have any suggestions or alternatives?

Turn it off and then turn it back on; it functioned on my older machine too. Which operating system are you using?
