Remarks

• You must handle Wi-Fi connection operations using Connection Manager APIs such as CmAcquireConnection, CmAddConnectionConfig, or CmReleaseConnection.
• Otherwise, if you use this API, it returns ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED.

This function returns only the basic information about the profiles. You can retrieve the full content of a profile by using the WlanGetProfile function.

This function allocates memory. To free the memory, you must call the WlanFreeMemory function.
