    I have Windows 10 Pro, version 1903. I updated it on 1/15/2020. It screwed up my WiFi. I have been unable to uninstall the update. The message that I get when attempting to connect the WiFi is, "Can't connect to this network." I attempted to include a screen print. That doesn't work either.

    win 10 ruin my wifi connection

    after the latest update of windows 10, it ruins my wifi connection! I did system restore my laptop (alienware 17) as suggested by the Microsoft support agent, but the problem is still there.

    and fyi, the best drivers are already installed in my system yet the same problem persist!

    kudos to Microsoft for ruining my life!

    Win 10 update ruined my computer


    I will gladly dispose of any "ruined computer" that Windows 10 has "ruined". Just ship them to me and I will take care of disposing of the "ruined" hardware!

    Windows 10 wifi and update & security not working


    Hi All,

    I have been battling an issue with Windows 10 every night for the last 2 weeks. I apologise for the long post but will try to provide as much detail as possible.

    Initially I had a critical error warning which stopped me accessing the start menu and Internet explorer/edge. I fixed this by uninstalling Norton Antivirus and installing an alternative.

    However I now have no wifi internet connection. All other devices using the wifi are working fine. I have checked the driver for the wifi adapter and it is up to date. The adapter also states working fine when running various tests. I have also reset my router and tried many other fixes to no avail.

    I also have have a problem with the 'updates and security' option from the control panel. When I click on this it doesn't do anything.

    I have spoken to Microsoft and they have suggested the driver for the adapter is incompatible. However the computer has been working fine with wifi for a good while since updating to Win 10. They suggested the solution was to revert back to Win 8 but this seems a step backwards and I don't have the product key for Win 8 so would need to purchase new.

    I am thinking the only option would be a reset but I can't access that as the updates and security tab doesn't work.

    I have run a system check (sfc scan now) and that found no issues. I have also ran a full Antivirus scan but again found nothing.

    Any advice greatfully received.
