16808	Removed network adapters are still showing in bridged networking	viaujoc		"When I run ""vboxmanage list bridgedifs"", I get a list of adapter that still contains adapters that are not in the system anymore. In my case, I used to have VLANs adapters that were created using the Intel ANS utility. The VLAN were since removed but are still showing in VirtualBox bridged networking. This is annoying.

In the log below, all adapters having a HardwareAddress of 00:00:00:00:00:00 are not in the system anymore but are still listed in all VirtualBox bridged networking list.

I tried removing and reinstalling VB, removing and reinstalling the NDIS6 Bridged Network Driver, nothing works, the old adapters are still showing up in the list. The Windows registry does not contain any references to the GUID of the removed adapters anymore. Why is VB still
