Windows 10: All wifi has disappeared from my computer - All options removed, no wifi section in settings

Hi thereI am having this recurring issue where all wifi settings, buttons and options disappear completely from my laptop. Doing a hard reboot briefly fixed it and then the same thing happened. I have tried: - hard reboot multiple times - uninstalling and reinstalling all drivers - resetting network setting- running troubleshooterNothing works - it’s incredibly frustrating - and obviously my laptop is pretty much unusable without an internet connection. Please help!

Wifi option disappeared

My laptop no longer has the wifi button, it only allows me to use the internet using Ethernet. When I looked for the wifi option is the network settings, it is completely gone, all I have is the VPN, Ethernet etc. The methods that were listed didn't help
me with this problem.

Please help.
