This did the trick for me. Thank you.
You might want to consider starting a new discussion. Since this one is a couple of years old, less people are likely to look at it. A new post would be much more visible. You can link to this one.
Hi, the answer was only posted by Phillby001 in July (Jul 12, 2016 8:54 AM).
Apologies for the spam, but I will post this in case it's useful for someone else too:
How do you unsubscribe from threads like this? I don't want email updates to 2 year old threads!
I'm not following any communities, so no idea why I am being emailed this stuff.
EDIT: Sorry, now fixed it. Please ignore this post... I'd delete it if I knew how!
I did uncheck that box, and I clicked "ok," however when I checked again (by going to System Preferences,) the other network still showed/shows.
yay! helped me! Gone is my old HP computer that has been lurking on my finder for 3 years now.. thank you
Hi,
Did you find a way to get rid of that old ugly piece of icon.
Thanks
Hi! did you find a solution for this?
Nope, didn't work for me. My keychain couldn't even find the named shared computer 😟
Try this: and then at the end physically turn computer off then on..

I've been working on removing an old HP computer and making only a little headway when I came across your suggestion and tried it. I was multi-tasking on my Macbook Pro and using my Mac and didn't want to meddle with the router physically until the Macbook Pro was finished with what I had it doing, so I decided to go ahead and try your suggestion.
The problem was this: I had an old HP computer visible on the Finder list at the left side of the window and wanted to remove it.
In a previous post, I came across the check/uncheck Bonjour computers suggestion in the Finder Preferences under the Sidebar menu and it would indeed 'hide' the HP but there was a new item which appeared with the word 'All' in it that came on in place of the HP item and I didn't want to see either.
As soon as I re-checked the Bonjour computers checkbox, the HP came back so I knew it was still present, just hidden and since I no longer use that computer, I wanted it gone for good.
Next, I saw the thread about toggling the File Share off then back on and voila! My HP is now gone off the Shared list in Finder and I can toggle Bonour computers on and off and HP is still gone. Yay! Thanks for the help wstoneburner and a few others who posted before yours which led me to your suggestion.
