Windows 10: airplane mode icon

The airplane mode does not show up on my computer. How do I install it or could some thing be blocking it?

:)

 

airplane mode

problem was:

pc cant connect to wifi cos airplane mode randomly turned on by itself

you can google to see why computer does that - microsoft seems to have never fixed this

fixed this by turning off something in services (this goes to show how many services are bad and should be off by default, again a long-standing microsoft problem that they've never made better)


new problem:

the wifi icon on botton left changed to the airplane mode icon

and when old problem was fixed, airplane mode icon is stuck like that

what are steps to fix?

what are troubleshoot this?

Hi Hunky,

The option you are looking for to permanently disable Airplane mode is unfortunately not available.

Step 1: To turn off Airplane mode from Settings and check.

• Press Windows key, click on Settings
  from the left pane.

  Click on the Network icon in the taskbar notification area.

If the settings are not refining, this issue might have occurred due to corrupted/ missing system files.

System File Checker is a utility in Windows that allows users to scan for corruptions in Windows system files and restore corrupted files. If a
Windows Resource Protection (WRP) file is missing or is corrupted, Windows may not behave as expected.

Follow the below steps:

  Enter.
