I’ve looked at every tutorial I found and I just can’t find one that helps to change my MAC address on windows 10. I have used Ubuntu for a while and I feel it’s time to switch OS again (autistic, so I have this thing for switching things up every once in a while), I have used “macchanger” to do it but now I need it on windows 10, specifically a Samsung phone’s address, which no tutorial has provided a solution for (all 3rd party software gives errors because they can’t do such a simple task)

 

is there anyone that have successfully done this?

Have you tried this method? I have done this before and it worked on mine but that was a while ago. I don't really have a current need to do that anymore.

Yes, and they are trying to set the ethernet address, so I don't get the same option they are trying, it is worth mentioning I'm trying to change the address on the Wi-Fi and not ethernet because of that. I should've mentioned that.

I have already looked at that, but a second look told me something: "Note that when changing the MAC make sure it starts with either 02, 06, 0A or 0E otherwise it might not work. Seems to be a Windows restriction or limitation. (See this other answer)"

 

 

So it will not work, because I need to change it to 48 in the start. But thanks anyway. I'll just stay with Linux for a while.
