Make Windows 10 connect/disconnect to WiFi based on Ethernet connection status

How to disable/enable WIFI when Ethernet connection is available in Windows 10. My Ethernet connection is faster than my Wifi, but Windows 10 keeps routing via Wifi when I connect. Is there any way to disable Wifi based when Ethernet is connected?

This question was posted for Windows 7, but for Windows 8 or 10 there's no similar procedures.

Steps:

1. Go to View Network Connections or Control Panel\ All Control Panel Items\ Network and Sharing Center > click on 'Change adapter settings' then use the alt button to show menus and select Advanced Settings...
2. Under Connections section, select Ethernet, and use the arrows to the right to move Ethernet above WiFi.
3. Click OK.

Windows will now prefer the Ethernet over the WiFi for connecting to the internet. This should apply for Windows 8, 8.1, and 10.
