Windows 10: Code 28 Network Adapter error.

Hello,


i have had repeated problems with my network driver. Every time windows updates, my laptop’s network adapter driver fails. I, following the advice of online message boards like this, have followed steps to update and/or reinstall drivers, occassionally having to do a network reset. These solutions have worked in the past. However, this time they did not. I uninstalled the network driver, but the driver did not reinstall after reboot. So now my computer has NO network driver lsited in device manager. All message boards and IT advice so far has been to connect download the newest driver from the internet, howrver, since the driver that failed is the driver that allows me to connect to the internet, i cannot connect to thw internet to download anything. I have not been able to access the internet from my laptop in 3 days. Please advise.

:)
