Network keeps changing back to "Public" in Windows 10

[yanpaulo]

Any way to switch Windows 10's WiFi network type to Private and make it to stay like that? I can even manage to switch from Public to Private using a small trick, but some time later, it will switch back to Public network! Anyone else having this issue? If yes, how to solve it?

I noticed the same problem but don't have a fix yet. I hope it was fixed in the first update today. It's pissing me off because I only allow remote desktop connections when my computer is on a private network, so I keep getting locked out.

I noticed this as well on at least one of mine as well. I haven't gone back to see if it reverted back to Public again.
