I only wish to keep TELPorto
, HillBillies
and NgNetHookup
need to be nuked.
From reading man nmcli
, I was unable to discover how to edit that list. I am running Linux Mint.

The following were just a few of the 20? or 30? yug combinatorial / experimenting efforts made to chance on some syntax nmcli would work with:
Trying using DBUS-PATH // GENERAL.CON-PATH: innocent / # nmcli dev disconnect /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/ActiveConnection/6
Error: Device '/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/AccessPoint/83' not found.
Error: not all devices found.
Trying using SSID-HEX: innocent / # nmcli dev disconnect 436975612057256961
Error: Device '436975612057256961' not found.
Error: not all devices found.
Trying with UUID:
innocent system-connections # nmcli dev disconnect 'eb8ab8ea-e616-48ba-a9eb-a6bfdf1ec480'
Error: Device 'eb8ab8ea-e616-48ba-a9eb-a6bfdf1ec480' not found.
Error: not all devices found.
Finally, for the WIN, using one of the commands referenced in the answer below, from GAD3R , this did the job:
innocent system-connections # nmcli connection delete id Ng\ WiFiLink
Connection 'Ng WiFiLink' (eb8ab8ea-e616-48ba-a9eb-a6bfdf1ec480) successfully deleted. innocent system-connections #
