Windows 10: Can't turn off airplane mode on Windows 10 after latest update

Hello, a while ago I downloaded latest Windows 10 update (that big one Microsoft says that it takes about 90 minutes to complete) and after my PC turned back on I couldn't turn on Wi-Fi and turn off airplane mode. That airplane mode button is weirdly grayed out as you can see on picture. Please help. I already tried some methods that I found online but it didn't work for me.

How to turn on off Airplane mode in windows 10?

Two methods as given in the article as well.

• Open Action Center by clicking the rightmost icon. In the bottom side, a tile of airplane mode would be given. Clicking that would turn it ON and turn it into bright tile.
• Navigate to Settings>Network and Internet and turn Airplane mode ON or OFF.

All clear steps are here as well:
