Windows 10: Fail to update/install wireless adapter driver

My wireless adapter suddenly stopped working and I cannot use Internet connection on my laptop (but the wired connection works fine). In Device Manager the driver for Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 8265 seems to have a problem [Windows is still setting up the class configuration for this device. (Code 56)]. I already tried to uninstall the driver and update through win10 system, but failed. I also tried to use the driver provided by Intel and it didn't work either. I suspect that it has something to do with my previous uninstallation of cisco anyconnect because I also couldn't install expressvpn afterwards. Has anyone encountered this kind of problem before?


Error info during driver installation: This operation returned because the time period expired.

Wireless adapter installation.

Hey. I just wanna make this short and sweet. All I wanna know is why I can't install/update wireless adapter drivers on Vista 64 bit but it works on 32 bit? On my wireless adapter box, it doesn't say Vista compatible (only XP and 2000) but if 32 bit Vista works, 64 bit should. Because when I do a fresh install of Vista for an example, all I do is update the driver in device manager then I'm on the net but with 64 bit it don't work. And how can I find out the manufacturer of my wireless adapter? Or brand etc. It came in a BT box, a small one. Just says Wireless USB adapter. I dunno if BT has a driver section.
