Re: how to remove tunnel adapters which i dont want.

Windows Vista includes a full IPv6 stack that is enabled by default. These
extra interfaces are part of that. There's no need to remove them.

I just have the same problem, and I was wondering if you happened to
solve how to remove the list of unused tunnel adapters in ipconfig.

Thanks
