Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter Missing


Hello,

I've been trying to get my virtual WiFi hotspot working since I upgraded to Windows 10 and it does not seem to be working. In Device Manager instead of finding an instance of Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter I have Microsoft Hosted Network Virtual Adapter installed and this is only present in Network Connections when the hosted network is started and it disappears when it is stopped, unlike the Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter which was persistently in Network Connections. Also, my devices can connect to the hotspot I create but the network itself is limited and they have no internet access even though I have enabled sharing on my Ethernet connection. When trying to troubleshoot the limited connection I get the error message '"Wi-Fi does not have a valid IP configuration".

Does anyone have any advice on how to get the Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter back? I've tried reinstalling both my Ethernet and WiFi drivers in Device manager but it always installs Microsoft Hosted Network Virtual Adapter instead. Or am I in the wrong ballpark and it is nothing to do with this new driver. Any help would be appreciated!

 

win10 Virtual Wifi Miniport Adapter

I read it as the Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter might be used by Hackers to access machines and all that might involve? As a result the Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter has been withdrawn for good. That is just my interpretation, so I
could be wrong.

Did the workaround I posted offer any solution for you?

 

Microsoft WiFI Miniport adapter Missing issue.


Heyy..

I have an issue regarding an adapter of Microsoft WiFi miniport adapter.

Previously on my windows 7 Microsoft WiFi miniport adapter was installed when i started a hostednetwork(or a hotspot) through cmd.

But as i upgraded to windows 10(Presently I have windows 10 Pro..Edition 1511..Os Build 10586.420 installed in my pc) When Type following commands(without quotes) in cmd(as an admin)

"netsh wlan show drivers"

It shows

"Hostednetwork Supported: Yes"

That means I can Create a hotspot.

But When I check in my network connections window(in Control Panel) it shows a driver named as "Local Area Connection2".

Although hotspot is created, it never shares internet of my WiFi network(As I have network Connection by means of WiFi using Tp-Link USB Wireless adapter) I am unable to share my internet connection thorugh WiFi.

But As I said before, in windows 7 it shared internet connection through WiFi.

Also When i had checked before in network connections it showed a Microsoft Virtual Wireless Network connection and driver installed is Microsoft WiFi miniport adapter.

So I have a Question as "Does Microsoft WiFi miniport adapter is available for windows 10?"
And If yes there send me a link for downloading it.
And if not try helping me to fix it out.
Waiting for a Reply.
