    I changed a name of a PC in the local Network, can't remove the old name


    Well, truth be told, I have a little OCD. I changed the name to this pc and that shows up respectfully. But the old name is there and I keep clicking on the old name. How do I get this defunct name off my network list in explorer. I have tried several suggestions. When I right click it does not not say, Delete, Disconnect or any such. tyRegards!
