Virtual Hosted Network in windows 8

Hi All,

When we Plug any wifi adapter in windows 7 machine ,windows 7 immediately creates one virtual adapter(i.e. Hosted Network) in  Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network Connections window.

(And when we unplug wifi adapter from windows 7 machine ,windows 7 immediately removes that virtual adapter from Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network Connections window.)

My problem is When I Plug any wifi adapter in windows 8 machine ,windows 8 does not create virtual adapter(i.e. Hosted Network) in  Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network Connections window.I have to manually start it by firing netsh wlan start hostednetwork in cmd every time whenever I unplug and again plug wifi adapter.

So I am looking for solution which will fix this problem permanently and there will be no problem like windows 7. 

Is there any registry setting to fix it or anything else?

I am using windows 8 enterprise edition 64-bit trial version.

Thanx in Advance.
