  1. Diable Airplane Mode permanently on student computers


    I am the network administrator at a school and I have students who go into airplane mode to avoid monitoring software. Is there a way through group policy to disable this for students in our school?


    If not through group policy is there any other method to do this?


    Thank you for your help.

    :)

  2. How to disable Airplane mode permanently on Windows 10?

    Hi Hunky,

    As you are facing issues with turning on or off Airplane on your device, do not worry we will help you with this issue.

    Do let us know if you have made any changes to the operating system prior to this issue?

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

    Let us try few of the below troubleshooting steps to disable Airplane mode and check if it helps.

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

    • Press Windows key, click on Settings
      from the left pane.
    • Click on Network & Internet.
    • Under Airplane mode turn it off and check.

    Step 2: To Turn On or Off Airplane Mode in Network Notification Area Icon


    • Click on the Network icon in the taskbar notification area.

    • Click on the Airplane mode button to toggle on or off.

    Step 3: To Turn On or Off Airplane Mode in Action Center


    • Open Action Center by clicking Windows + A keys from keyboard.

    • Click on the Airplane mode quick action button to toggle on or off.

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

    Step 4: I suggest you to run SFC scan and check if it helps.

    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:

    • Right click on the Start button, click on
      Command Prompt (Admin).
    • Type “sfc /scannow” without the quotes and hit
      Enter.
    • After the scan, restart the computer and check for the issue.

    Hope it helps. Reply to the post with updated status of disabling the Airplane mode for further assistance.

    Thank you.

  3. Airplane mode permanently on

    Hi,

    So I have tried the suggestions and unfortunately none have worked as of yet.

    1. I tried this and the airplane mode toggle is still greyed out.

    2. I disabled all my network adapters, left them for around 30 mins and enabled them after restarting but airplane mode is still permanently on.

    3. I had a look at this post and it seems similar to your 2nd suggestion. Tried it and it didn't work.

    I should say I am using the laptop whilst writing this, using an Ethernet cable to access the internet, but I am restricted from carrying it around and using the bluetooth capabilities.

    Thanks for the suggestions.

    Hi Josette,

    The challenge that you are experiencing with your computer's airplane mode can occur due to several reasons, such as corrupted system files. To better assist you, kindly answer the following questions:

    • Have you made any significant changes to your computer before the issue started? When did the issue start?
    • What are the exact troubleshooting steps that you've taken so far? This is for us to avoid providing the same steps.
    • Is the option to turn off airplane mode grayed out?

    We look forward to your response.
